- <description>
- <p>This module contains some functions that gives support in creating
- IDL typecodes that can be used in for example the any types typecode field.
- For the simple types it is meaningless to use this API but the functions exist
- to get the interface complete.</p>
- <p>The type <c>TC</c> used below describes an IDL type and is a tuple according
- to the to the Erlang language mapping.</p>
