<P>
For pointer types, such as opaque, interface, class, and array, a 64-bit 
integer is used, so FORTRAN 77 code will be portable between systems 
with a 32 bit address space and systems with a 64 bit address space. 
On a 32 bit system, the upper 32 bits of these quantities are ignored. 
Systems with more than 64-bit pointers aren't currently supported.

<P>
Generally, clients should treat opaque, interface, class and array values 
as black boxes. 
However, there is one value that is special. 
A value of zero for any of these  quantities indicates that the value does 
not refer to an object. 
Zero is the FORTRAN 77 equivalent of NULL . 
Any nonzero value is or should be a valid object reference.
Developers writing in FORTRAN 77 should initialize values to be passed as 
in or inout parameters to zero or a valid object reference.

<P>
When mapping the SIDL string type into FORTRAN 77, some capability was 
sacrificed to make it possible to use normal looking FORTRAN 77 string handling. 
<A NAME="7242"></A> One difference is that all
FORTRAN 77 strings have a limited fixed size. 
When implementing a subroutine with an out parameter, the size of the 
string is limited to 512 characters.

<P>
Enumerated types are just integer values. 
The constants are defined in an includable file assuming your FORTRAN 77 
compiler supports some form of including.
