[omniORB] VC6.0 gives warning C4097

[jon.kristensen@kongsberg-simrad.com]

Hi,

I am now trying omniORB 4.0, and when compiling with warning level 4 and
above, I get a huge amount of warnings like:

d:\omni\include\omniorb4\seqtemplatedecls.h(602) : warning C4097:
typedef-name 'Base_T_seq' used as synonym for class-name '
_CORBA_Unbounded_Sequence<short>'
        d:\omni\include\omniorb4\seqtemplatedecls.h(598) : while compiling
class-template member function '__thiscall
_CORBA_Unbounded_Sequence_w_FixSizeElement<short,2,2>::
_CORBA_Unbounded_Sequence_w_FixSizeElement<short,2,2>(unsigned
long,unsigned long,short *,bool)'

d:\omni\include\omnithread.h(622) : warning C4511: 'omni_thread' : copy constructor could not be generated
        d:\omni\include\omnithread.h(364) : see declaration of 'omni_thread'

d:\omni\include\omnithread.h(622) : warning C4512: 'omni_thread' : assignment operator could not be generated
        d:\omni\include\omnithread.h(364) : see declaration of 'omni_thread'

d:\omni\include\omnithread.h(558) : warning C4100: 'arg' : unreferenced formal parameter

d:\omni\include\omnithread.h(559) : warning C4100: 'arg' : unreferenced formal parameter




about 13700 warnings total for my project at warning level 4.


They all dissapar at warning level 3, but so do a lot of other important
      warnings.


I know that Microsoft is not standard compliant, and may generate improper
      warnings, but I also checked their doc for warning C4097, and there
      they claim that your code violates the standard.


To be fair, I aslo have to mention that the version of STL delivered with
      VC60 also gives a lot of warnigs at level 4.


What is the omniORB philosophy on this?


Regards,


Jon
