                            Summary:The core spec says in section 4.11.3: Typecode creation operations that take name as an argument shall check that 
 the name
 is a valid IDL name or is a null string.This is oxymoronic: we are talking about IDL here; IDL does not have the 
 concept of
 a null string. If anything, we can say "empty string".Looking at this bit of spec, it would appear that a call such as orb->create_interface_tc(someRepId, 0); is legal. But that doesn't make sense because it's illegal to pass null 
 pointers
 across IDL interfaces in C++ (or null references as strings in Java).
