DDSXTY14 — Implementation Defined Default Nested Behavior

  • Key: DDSXTY14-15
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Object Computing, Inc. - OCI ( Mr. Adam Mitz)
  • Summary:

    7.3.1.2.1.7 Nested Types

    By default, aggregated types and aliases to aggregated types defined in IDL are not considered to be nested types.

    ...

    If not present on a module, the value defaults to that of the enclosing module. If a top -level module is not annotated, the default is FALSE.

    ...

    In addition to the above annotations, IDL compilers shall provide the means to change the default value for non-annotated top-level modules.

    Given the fourth sentence, the first and third sentences should also say the nested status of a non-annotated type is implementation defined.
