CosTime::TIO::spans and CotTime::TIO::overlaps issue

  • Key: TIME-4
  • Legacy Issue Number: 1713
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    Summary: n Appendix B, p14-21 the return type of the interfaces
    CosTime::TIO::spans
    and
    CosTime::TIO::overlaps
    is declared as boolean. This is in contradiction to p 14-10,11 of the
    same document that states a return type of OverlapType.

    The correct return type is OverlapType.

OMG TimeService spec error

  • Key: TIME-3
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4979
  • Status: closed  
  • Summary:

    Just came accoss an issue with the publichsed CosTime IDL.
    The specification for the TIO interface contains a return
    value of OverlapType for a couple of its operations. However,
    the published IDL for CosTime returns a boolean.

    interface TIO

    { OverlapType spans( in UTO time, out TIO overlap); OverlapType overlaps( in TIO interval, out TIO overlap); UTO time (); }

    ;

    IDL defintion:

    interface TIO

    { boolean spans( in UTO time, out TIO overlap); boolean overlaps( in TIO interval, out TIO overlap); UTO time (); }

    ;

Obsolete reference to readout operation?

  • Key: TIME-2
  • Legacy Issue Number: 5625
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Floorboard Software ( Jonathan Biggar)
  • Summary:

    Section 2.8.1.2 of the Enhanced Time specification mentions the readout
    operation. Should that be a Clock::current_time attribute instead?

Clock Interface

  • Key: TIME-1
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4587
  • Status: open  
  • Source: comcast.net ( Dock Allen)
  • Summary:

    The enhanced views of time added an interface for user-defined clocks,
    including requesting synchronized time. However, there is no way to
    tell the ORB what clock to use for the build in CORBA time-related
    functions (timeouts, etc). At a minimum, it would be good to be able to
    get a synchronized ORB clock. Can we move these interfaces into CORE
    for RT CORBA?
