+/** defines the interface for creating bridges to other object models.
+
+ <p>Because bridges sometimes can not be generated in an address space,
+ the implementation needs to check the address space of the caller by
+ comparing the machine and process ID against its own. These IDs are
+ provided by the UNO runtime. </p>
+
+ <p>All objects, whether they are part of the UNO object model or not,
+ are carried in an <atom>any</atom>. The representation of this object
+ is heavily model-dependent and has to be specified in the following list: </p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dt>UNO: </dt>
+ <dd>The any carries normal UNO types, which can be any base type,
+ struct, sequence, enum, or interface. </dd>
+
+ <dt>OLE: </dt>
+ <dd>The any carries an <atom>unsigned long</atom> (on 32-bit systems)
+ or an <atom>unsigned hyper</atom> (on 64-bit systems), which is
+ interpreted as a variant pointer. The any does not control the
+ lifetime of the represented variant. That implies that the caller
+ has the responsibility of freeing the OLE resources represented
+ by the any value. </dd>
+
+ <dt>JAVA: </dt>
+ <dd>not yet specified. </dd>
+
+ <dt>CORBA: </dt>
+ <dd>not yet specified. </dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>Any implementation can supply its own bridges to other object
+ models by implementing this interface and returning the bridge
+ when the method is called with itself as the first parameter. </p>
