Open Closed All
  • Key: CORBA25-19
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4233
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Floorboard Software ( Yvonne Biggar)
  • Summary:

    The CORBA::DataInputStream abstract valuetype has operations like:

    void read_boolean_array( inout BooleanSeq seq,
    in unsigned long offset,
    in unsigned long length);

    However, the spec says nothing about whether the provided sequence must
    already have sufficient length to satisfy the offset+length or whether
    the operation will extend the sequence to fit.
