IDL42 — Rule 174 requires space after opening curly brace

Open Closed All
  • Key: IDL42-1
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Vanderbilt University (ISIS) ( Spencer Crosswy)
  • Summary:

    Rule 174 requires a space after the open brace:
    (174) > <porttype_def ::= "porttype" <identifier> "

    { " <port_body> "}

    "

    This has the following consequence:
    Valid:
    porttype TESTPORT

    { provides FOO BAR; }

    ;

    Invalid:
    porttype TESTPORT

    {provides FOO BAR; }

    ;

    I expect this was just an oversight, because it's the only instance in the grammar that requires a space after an opening curly brace.
