[omniORB] Value Box issue

[Josh Arnold]

Hello,

I'm having a problem with the C++ header generated for ValueBox types.   For 
example, using the following IDL:

module org {
module omg {
module boxedRMI {

    valuetype seq1_boolean sequence<boolean>;

#pragma ID seq1_boolean "RMI:[Z:0000000000000000"

};
};
};

The generated class has the following declaration:

        static seq1_boolean* _downcast(ValueBase*);

The problem is ValueBase should be scoped to the CORBA namespace, as in:

        static seq1_boolean* _downcast(CORBA::ValueBase*);

I believe the underlying problem is on line 836 of 
src/lib/omniORB/omniidl_be/cxx/value.py.  It appears to still be an issue in 
the latest development stream.

Note that the generated stub does use the correct namespace for the function 
definition:

org::omg::boxedRMI::seq1_boolean*
org::omg::boxedRMI::seq1_boolean::_downcast(CORBA::ValueBase* _b)
{
  return _b ? (org::omg::boxedRMI::seq1_boolean*)_b->_ptrToValue(_PD_repoId) 
: 0;
}


Thanks,
- Josh Arnold
