      If I have an IDL type with many integer fields (perhaps that are counters, for example) it would be nice to be able to reset them without having to do the following:

      IDLObject obj;
      
      obj.setFieldOne(0);
      obj.setFieldTwo(0);
      obj.setFieldThree(0);
      obj.setFieldFour(0);
      obj.setFieldFive(0);
      obj.setFieldSix(0);
      

      Perhaps something like:

      IDLObject obj;
      obj.setAllFieldsToDefaultValues();
