There are two errors in your IDL:
1. Arrays have fixed bounds, so you have to supply the size of the array
   between []. Otherwise you must use a sequence.
2. In an operation (method) declaration you can't use a complex type like
   an array, sequence or struct. You must give them a name with typedef.

  interface shortTest{
    typedef short shortarray[10];
    shortarray returnShort();
  };
