PYTH — Python Issue: Dynamic Invocation Interface

In the third paragraph of Section 14.4.4 states that "The application may
specify the repository id of the target object.".

I assume that this is done in order for the ORB to lookup the operation in
the given interface in and be determine parameter type/direction and return
value information.

This raises the following issues:

• What exception is raised if the repository id is invalid (ie, can't be
  looked up in the IFR, etc...)
• "Standard" operations (ie, _is_a, _interface, etc...) are not defined in
  the IFR so these need to be handled separately than other operations

Should we also provide a "standard" operation (similar to C++) which takes
something like a NamedValuePair sequence (or better yet a
CORBA::OperationDescription)?

issue rejected, closed
