CORBA24 — Preprocessing of IDL

Page 3-12:

OMG IDL preprocessing, which is based on ANSI C++ preprocessing, ..
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The highlighted phrase is meaningless and should be deleted.

In addition, the last para of 3.3 says that

A complete description of the preprocessing facilities may be found
in the The Annotated C++ Reference Manual.

For one, the ARM is badly out of date. Second, the para implies, but doesn't
actually say, that IDL preprocessing is exactly like C++ preprocessing.

I would suggest to replace the last para with a definitive statement to
say that IDL is preprocessed as described for C++ in the ISO/IEC C++ standard.
In addition, that statement should probably be used as the lead-in to
section 3.3.
