JAV2I14 — Guidance on RepositoryIDs for primitive types

  • Key: JAV2I14-4
  • Legacy Issue Number: 5891
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Oracle ( Andrew Piper)
  • Summary:

    I have noticed that the Sun ORB generates RepositoryIds for primitive types when generating a FullValueDescription that looks like this:

    RMI:int:000000000000000000

    Now you could argue that the type of int is Integer.TYPE and the function getName() on this class does indeed return "int" however there are explicit mappings for primitive types (int -> IDL long) and this just seems wrong to me.

    Should the repid be null or something else? Does it matter?
