+/** maps UNO types to oleautomation types and vice versa.<p>
 
+    The XBridgeSupplier2 interface provides the function <code>createBridge</code> which
+    maps a value of an UNO or Automation type to the desired target type. If an UNO interface
+    was mapped  to IDispatch, then all objects (interfaces, structs) and other
+    types which
+    are obtained from that Automation object are automatically mapped to the corresponding
+     Automation types. Hence, if one provides an initial object which forms the root of all
+     other objects, such as a service manager, then only that object needs to be explicitly
+     mapped by a call to <code>createBridge</code>. The same holds true if an automation
+     object is mapped to an UNO interface.<br>
+    <p>The Automation types <code>VT_CY</code> and <code>VT_DATE</code> are not supported.
+    For Automation objects to be mapped they have to implement IDispatch interface. Other
+    COM interfaces,
+    except for IUnknown, are not supported.UNO interfaces and structs are mapped to IDispatch.
