Synopsis

May be used to determine if an object has been destroyed.

C++ Binding

CORBA::Boolean  CORBA::Object::_non_existent();

Arguments

None.

Description

This member function may be used to determine if an object has been destroyed. It does this without invoking any application-level operation on the object, and so will never affect the object itself.

Return Values

Returns CORBA_TRUE (rather than raising CORBA::OBJECT_NOT_EXIST) if the ORB knows authoritatively that the object does not exist; otherwise, it returns CORBA_FALSE.
