public interface WorkContext
WorkContext is a marker interface used for marshaling
and unmarshaling user data in a WorkArea. The
interfaces WorkContextOutput and
WorkContextInput will only allow primtive types and
objects implementing WorkContext to be marshaled. This
limits the type surface area that needs to be dealt with by
underlying protocols. WorkContext is analogous to
Externalizable but with some restrictions on the types
that can be marshaled. Advanced Externalizable
features, such as enveloping, are not supported - implementations
should provide their own versioning scheme if
necessary. WorkContext implementations must provide a
public no-arg constructor.| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
