CORBA23 — Need to specify exception for abstract interface error

  • Key: CORBA23-75
  • Legacy Issue Number: 2502
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    Summary: An abstract interface type in an operation signature indicates that
    at runtime the value passed will either be an object reference or a
    valuetype. However, it is possible for user code invoking this
    operation to supply (incorrectly) a runtime programming language object
    that is neither of these. For example, an IDL abstract interface type
    maps into a Java interface, and the object passed at runtime could be
    any Java type that implements this interface.

    The spec does not currently define an exception to be used in this
    error case. The Java to IDL mapping needs a defined exception so that
    it can detect this error and return a NotSerializableException to the
    application.
