   // responsible for freeing that reference.

   // the value of that string will be placed in *str_val. If the var is not

   // function, and then destroy the temporary string. These two functions
   // handle that process

   // BeginReceiveCallerOwned takes a var from IPC and an optional pointer to
   // the deserialized string (which will be used only when var is a

   // Passinag refs -------------------------------------------------------------
   //

   // output arguments, as for exceptions. The code generating the value
   // (the function returning it in the case of a return value) will AddRef
   // the var on behalf of the consumer of the value. Responsibility for
   // Release is on the consumer (the caller of the function in the case of a
   // return value).
