SEC14 — CORBA::PolicyManager

  • Key: SEC14-19
  • Legacy Issue Number: 2069
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    Summary: SecurityCurrent should probably inherit from PolicyCurrent to marry this
    functionality of dealing with policies. However, the messaging
    specification I don"t think is "adopted", although it has an RTF. I don"t
    know what is the proper procedure about RTFing things on not-yet adopted
    technology.
    The PolicyManager has a serious, or at least I
    think it"s serious flaw. The PolicyManager has "get_policy_overrides" and
    "set_policy_overrides" functions. So does CORBA::Object. However, the
    problem is. Not only do these operations on PolicyManager have different
    semantics than the corresponding ones on CORBA::Object,
    "set_policy_overrides" has a different signature!
