WHAT DOES DISCRIMINATOR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Discriminator

In distributed computing, a discriminator is a typed tag field present in OMG IDL discriminated union type and value definitions that determines which union member is selected in the current union instance. Unlike in some conventional programming languages offering support for unions, discriminator in IDL is not identical to selected field name. Here is an example of IDL union type definition: union Register switch ; Effective value of the Register type may contain AX as selected field, but discriminator value may be either 'a' or 'b' and it is stored in memory separately. Therefore, IDL logically separates information about currently selected field name and union effective value from information about current discriminator value. In the example above, discriminator value may be anything of the following: 'a', 'b', 'c', as well as all other characters belonging to the IDL char type, since the default branch specified in the example Register type allows use of the remaining characters as well.

Definition of discriminator in the English dictionary

The definition of discriminator in the dictionary is an electronic circuit that converts a frequency or phase modulation into an amplitude modulation for subsequent demodulation. Other definition of discriminator is an electronic circuit that has an output voltage only when the amplitude of the input pulses exceeds a predetermined value.
