I think Dick was just pointing out that it is not possible to query a
CORBA Object for his type code information, this information in the
CORBA world typically comes from an Interface Repository (in the CORBA
world).

Now, a side point is that typically Interface Repos are populated from
source IDL files.  You are right, we could "populate it" from a .NET
object trivially as well.
