 * We need a generic interface to forward any oneway uno interface method

 * It's not allowed to call synchronoues back to the office if a java object
 * was called in a oneway declared interface method. Then it must be
 * executed asynchronoues. To do so - a thread can be created which use this
 * interface. It get the object, which whis to be called back and the type and
 * parameter of the original request.
