I am building an interface from a programming language called APL2 to COM.
APL2 is in interactive loosely typed language. Typically, my customers will
pass a valid interface to my interface and instruct the interface to call
well-known methods. However, since the language is interactive, the users
may make typos and inadvertently pass arbitrary integers to the interface.
To prevent a crash, I would like to verify the integers are valid interfaces
before trying to use them to call methods.
