CORBA26 — Indirections with chunking & fragmentation

  • Key: CORBA26-91
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4328
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Oracle ( Everett Anderson)
  • Summary:

    When chunking and fragmenting, it is possible for a chunk length to be
    inserted between the indirection tag and indirection offset.
    Implementations must be careful to compute the indirection offset
    correctly both when writing and reading to avoid errors.

    For interoperability, we should elminate this possibility. From an
    implementation point of view, the code for handling this special case
    should already be there. Please see the original message (see
    attachment) for a detailed description of the problem scenario and two
    implementation possibilities.

    Proposed resolution:

    Elminate the possibility of chunk lengths between indirection tag and
    indirection offset by changing the following paragraph in CORBA formal
    00-11-03 15.3.4.6.
