10.5.17 FixedDef


   A FixedDef represents an IDL fixed point type.

   module CORBA {

   interface FixedDef : IDLType { attribute unsigned short digits; attribute short scale;

   };};

   The digits attribute specifies the total number of decimal digits in the number, and must be from 1 to 31, inclusive. The scale attribute specifies the position of the decimal point.

   The inherited type attribute is a tk_fixed TypeCode, which describes a fixed-point decimal number.
