+/** maps UNO types to oleautomation types and vice versa.
+    <p>
+    The function
+    <member scope="com::sun::star::bridge">XBridgeSupplier2::createBridge</member>
+    maps a value of a UNO or Automation type to the desired target type. If a UNO
+    interface was mapped  to <code>IDispatch</code>, then all objects
+    (interfaces, structs) and other types which are obtained from that Automation
+    object are automatically mapped to the corresponding Automation types. Hence,
+    if one provides an initial object which forms the root of all other objects,
+    such as a service manager, then only that object needs to be explicitly
+    mapped by a call to
+    <member scope="com::sun::star::bridge">XBridgeSupplier2::createBridge</member>.
+    The same holds true if an automation  object is mapped to an UNO interface.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    For Automation objects to be mapped they have to implement
+    <code>IDispatch</code> interface. Other COM interfaces, except for
+    <code>IUnknown</code>, are not supported. UNO interfaces and structs are
+    mapped to <code>IDispatch</code>.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    The service implements the
+    <type scope="com::sun::star::bridge">XBridgeSupplier2</type> interface and
+    handles the model types
+    <const>com::sun::star::bridge::ModelDependent::UNO</const> and
+    <const>com::sun::star::bridge::ModelDependent::OLE</const>.
+    The service does not specify any requirements for registering OLE objects and
+    class factories.
