what does narrowing the operation means in context of corba

[sandy gupta]

Hi Mandeep,
all objects that u make references of before u narrow are of type Object which is u can say the father of all Objects in CORBA. When u do a narrow on an Object type to a particular type what effectively u are doin is that u are type casting it to an Object of that type or since it is like making a son outta a father( although u know that can't happen ;-)), the operation is called narrowing.
