## Interface DynAny

- All Superinterfaces:
    `Object`
  All Known Subinterfaces:
    `DynArray`, `DynEnum`, `DynFixed`, `DynSequence`, `DynStruct`, `DynUnion`, `DynValue`

      @Deprecated
      public interface DynAny
      extends Object

  Deprecated.
  Use the new DynAny instead
  Enables `org.omg.CORBA.Any` values to be dynamically interpreted (traversed) and constructed. A `DynAny` object is associated with a data value which may correspond to a copy of the value inserted into an `Any`. The `DynAny` APIs enable traversal of the data value associated with an Any at runtime and extraction of the primitive constituents of the data value.

    - #### current_component

          DynAny current_component()

      Deprecated.
      Returns a `DynAny` object reference that can be used to get/set the value of the component currently accessed. The appropriate `insert` method can be called on the resulting `DynAny` object to initialize the component. The appropriate `get` method can be called on the resulting `DynAny` object to extract the value of the component.
      Returns:
        a `DynAny` object reference that can be used to retrieve or set the value of the component currently accessed

    - #### next

          boolean next()

      Deprecated.
      Moves to the next component of this `DynAny` object. This method is used for iterating through the components of a constructed type, effectively moving a pointer from one component to the next. The pointer starts out on the first component when a `DynAny` object is created.
      Returns:
        `true` if the pointer points to a component; `false` if there are no more components or this `DynAny` is associated with a basic type rather than a constructed type

    - #### seek

          boolean seek​(int index)

      Deprecated.
      Moves the internal pointer to the given index. Logically, this method sets a new offset for this pointer.
      Parameters:
        `index` - an `int` indicating the position to which the pointer should move. The first position is 0.
      Returns:
        `true` if the pointer points to a component; `false` if there is no component at the designated index. If this `DynAny` object is associated with a basic type, this method returns `false` for any index other than 0.

    - #### rewind

          void rewind()

      Deprecated.
      Moves the internal pointer to the first component.
