// = FILENAME
//    Reactor.idl
//
// = DESCRIPTION
//    A simple test of nested upcalls using a structure we likely all
//    know and love.
//
//    Existence of this interface should not be taken as testimony that
//    such a structure would work in ACE!  There is no such thing as an
//    IDL interface to the Reactor (yet)!
//
// = AUTHORS

{

  // descriptor.

  UShort decrement (in Reactor r, in UShort num);

  // and returning that value, finally stopping when it gets to zero.
};
