Abstract

See full text

Provided is a method and an apparatus for selectively returning parameters from an invoked object. Specifically, a requestor can invoke an object by transmitting a message. The message can include specified return parameters from an interface, such as an interface definition language (IDL). Alternatively, an object stub locally accessible by the requester can be invoked. The object stub, similar to the IDL, can specify the parameters to return. After the execution of a method in the invoked object, the requestor receives the return parameters or a subset of the return parameters previously selected.
