Summary: I have found a problem with the Java to IDL mapping (97-03-01) in the area of Unions. The problem is that the Java-idl mapping does not provide any means by
which the user can set the value of the union to be one of the non
branch members of the enum such as B.

Summary: In Section 23.13, the signature for insert_Object() is given as,

// throw excep when typecode inconsistent with value
abstract public void insert_Object(
org.omg.CORBA.Object o, org.omg.CORBA.TypeCode t)
throws org.omg.CORBA.MARSHAL;

Does this mean if an incorrect TypeCode is passed, eg. tk_short, that a
MARSHAL Exception must be thrown or could a BAD_PARAM Exception
be thrown.

Also, I assume read_value() is meant to insert a complex IDL type into
an Any ?
If so, read_value() is supposed to throw a MARSHAL Exception if the
typecode
is inconsistent with the value. Does this mean that if a short has been
written to the
stream, but the stream is passed with a tk_sequence typecode, then an
Exception
should be thrown by read_value() ?.

Summary: Chapter 9.8.1
Says "Local stubs are defined to be direct base classes of remote stubs"
Does it matter? It is the opposite way as proposed in the drawing in
chapter 6.4

MORE FAR-FETCHED IDEA

What if the Operations interface would not contain the inheritance
relationship? Wouldn"t that be a step in the direction of being able
to implement independent interfaces with one class. (To be
functional this would need matching changes in the tie class)

Summary: Chapter 5.2.4
class POA_<interface_name> is supposed to implement
<interface_name>Operations.

However neither specification nor the example contain any
operations method. The class also are not specified abstract.

Summary: Reserved words seen as IDL identifiers be prepended by an underscore. Insufficient for Holder, Helper, Package in case where two or three of these strings appear in single identifier

Clarify the IDL Name conflict resolution rules to resolve this case. Also change the naming rules

Summary: This specification defines CORBA::DATA_CONVERSION exception for IDL
types char/string, but does not define same exception for IDL types
wchar/wstring. However, in the CORBA 2.1, IDL types wchar/wstring can
handle any codeset beside Unicode (see section "10.7 Code Set Conversion"
in CORBA 2.1) as well as IDL types char/string. Therefore, data
conversion error may occur between IDL types wchar/wstring and Java
types char/java.lang.String.

Summary:
In 2.1 current became a regular IDL interface, so its mapping needs to
change.
Proposed Change:
delete section 23.16.14 on current

Summary: There is no Flags argument in the create_request operations
as mapped from PIDL to Java. This means that there is no
way to create a request with INV_NO_RESPONSE. Therefore,
you cannot do oneway invocations in Java DII without the ORB
having to consult the Interface Repository (clearly
unnacceptable).

Summary: I have found what appears to be a short coming of the IDL to Java
mapping for unions.
Reading the CORBA V2.0 (July 1995) on pages 3-23 and 3-24 it indicates
unions can have a value of the discriminator where there is not a case
that matches the discriminator. The Trader Service specification has a
great example of when this may be needed (in fact we are following this
pattern in PIDS). The Java mapping for unions does not have a method or constructor for
setting the discriminator when the discriminator does not correspond to
at least one case label.

Summary: Clarify the use of return_value() before invoke() in DII.
When using dii in Java (in portable stubs), it should be possible
to call return_value() before invoke() in order to get the Any
that will be associated with the return. It is then possible
to insert a streamable, which when combined with fixing copy
semantics for any"s, will enable a big performance improvement.
