CORBA26 — minor IDL changes required in CCM API

Open Closed All
  • Key: CORBA26-81
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4717
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: INRIA ( Philippe Merle)
  • Summary:

    In order to compile the Components.idl file with a compiler
    compliant with OMG IDL2/IDL3/CIDL/PSDL grammars simultaneously,
    it is required to apply some changes in CCM APIs:

    • In ptc/2001-11-03 draft chapter 61 page 61-225, the following IDL

    valuetype FacetDescription : PortDescription

    { public Object facet; }

    ;

    should be replaced by

    valuetype FacetDescription : PortDescription

    { public Object facet_ref; }

    ;

    because 'facet' is a CIDL keyword.

    • In ptc/99-10-04 chapter 62 page 62-141, the following IDL is defined

    exception Rollback { };
    // ...
    local interface Transaction

    { // ... void commit () raises (Rollback, NoTransaction, HeuristicMixed, HeuristicRollback, Security, SystemError); void rollback () raises (NoTransaction, Security, SystemError); // ... }

    ;

    Here there is a conflit name between the exception Rollback
    and the operation rollback.

    In order to avoid this, the exception Rollback should be renamed
    RollbackError. Then the previous IDL should be replaced by:

    exception RollbackError { };
    // ...
    local interface Transaction

    { // ... void commit () raises (RollbackError, NoTransaction, HeuristicMixed, HeuristicRollback, Security, SystemError); void rollback () raises (NoTransaction, Security, SystemError); // ... }

    ;

    In the commit operation description page 62-142, the Rollback exception
    should be replaced by RollbackError.

    In table 64-7 page 64-197, the Rollback exception of the commit operation
    should be replaced by RollbackError.

    • In ptc/99-10-04 chapter 62 page 62-151, the 1st 'home' parameter
      of the HomeRegistration::register_home and unregister_home operations
      implies a parser error with a CCM IDL compiler as 'home' is a keyword.

    The 'home' parameters should be replaced by 'home_ref'
    Ditto in the following 'register_home' and 'unregister_home'
    operation descriptions.

    • In ptc/99-10-04 chapter 62 page 62-155, the following IDL

    get_oid_from_ref (in Object ref)

    should be replaced by

    get_oid_from_ref (in Object objref)

    because 'ref' is a PSDL keyword.

    In the 'get_oid_from_ref' operation description page 62-156,
    replace 'The ref parameter' by 'The objref parameter'.

    • In ptc/99-10-04 chapter 62 page 62-162, the following IDL

    get_cid_from_ref (in Object ref)

    should be replaced by

    get_cid_from_ref (in Object objref)

    because 'ref' is a PSDL keyword.

    In the 'get_cid_from_ref' operation description page 62-163,
    replace '(ref)' by '(objref)'.

    • In ptc/2001-11-03 draft chapter 69 page 69-551, the following IDL

    void remove_container(in Container ref) raises (RemoveFailure);

    should be read as

    void remove_container(in Container cref) raises (RemoveFailure);

    because 'ref' is a PSDL keyword.

    • In ptc/2001-11-03 draft chapter 69 page 69-553, the following IDL

    void remove_home(in CCMHome ref) raises (RemoveFailure);

    should be read as

    void remove_home(in CCMHome href) raises (RemoveFailure);

    because 'ref' is a PSDL keyword.
