[omniORB] strange out ptr

[Renzo Tomaselli]

Renny,
    Key is just a normal interface. Btw, idl is generated automatically from
Rational Rose.
Things are as Alex just pointed out: OmniIDL doesn't use its own typedefs.
This was confusing me, since funny enough it's the very first time after
several years of OmniORB usage that I declare an objref as "out".
Thanks,

Renzo

Did you do a typedef for Key?  or is it just a struct?  Maybe doing typedef
will make a diff?

Hi all,
   I found a bit strange the generation of an out param as reported below:

// idl
interface Token {
   Key generateKeyPair(out Key pub);
...
// C++, from .hh
Key_ptr generateKeyPair(_CORBA_ObjRef_OUT_arg< Cryptoken::_objref_Key,
Key_Helper > pub);
...
I guess it should be "Key_ptr generateKeyPair(Key_out pub);". Indeed they
should be equivalent.
Environment is OmniORB is 4.03, WinXP, straight out of the box.
Thanks,

Renzo Tomaselli
