JAV2I12 — Java to IDL mapping contradictive to CORBA/IIOP 2.3.1

The Java to IDL Language Mapping (formal/99-07-59) seems to contradict the CORBA/IIOP 2.3.1 Specification (formal/99-10-07) over exceptions being raised by valuetype initialisers.

Section 1.3.5.4 of 99-07-59, point 3 states that exceptions thrown by a constructor of an object-by-value class are mapped to the corresponding OMG IDL exception.

On the other hand, section 2.8.1.5 of 99-10-07 does not allow initialisers to include a raises clause (contrast this with the syntax for an operation declaration in section 3.12).

This is a significant inter-operability problem. In my case the IDL generated by the IBM/SUN RMI-IIOP Java-to-IDL compiler (which includes 'raises' clauses in valuetype initialisers) is rejected as syntactically invalid by the MICO IDL-to-C++ compiler.

Close, no change. Core RTF issue 4785 has added exceptions to IDL valuetype initializers, which reso
