+as type-safe descriptors</title><shortdesc>Describes the package function to transfer data in correct structure. </shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>
+<p>Descriptors are often used as the basis of data transfer within Symbian
+platform. For example, inter-thread data transfer is specified in terms of
+transferring data from a descriptor valid in the context of one thread, to
+a descriptor valid in the context of another.</p>
+<p>Data to be transferred almost always has a well defined structure and it
+is important that the receiver of the data has some guarantee that the correct
+structure has been passed. This is type safety.</p>
+<p>A package <i>is</i> a descriptor and also acts as a wrapper around it.
+It allows objects and data structures to be represented by descriptors in
+a type safe way. Objects are either contained within a modifiable buffer descriptor
+or are represented by pointer descriptors.</p>
+<p>A package class is templated, the template parameter being the type of
+the object represented. The use of a template provides the required type safety.</p>
