public void result (Any any)
Deprecated. use the method set_resultSpecifies any return value for the call. Specifies any return value for the call. Note that this method is deprecated; use the method set_result in its place. Unless the method set_exception is called, if the invoked method has a non-void result type, the method set_result must be called exactly once before the DIR returns. If the operation has a void result type, the method set_result may optionally be called once with an Any object whose type is tk_void. Calling the method set_result before the method arguments has been called or after the method set_result or set_exception has been called will result in a BAD_INV_ORDER exception. Calling the method set_result without having previously called the method ctx when the IDL operation contains a context expression, or when the NVList passed to arguments did not describe all parameters passed by the client, may result in a MARSHAL system exception.
