[omniORB] String sequence

[Michael]

No guru questions, trivial. Until you get the book, you can download the
c++ mapping spec for free from www.omg.org.

class MyClass_impl: virtual public POA_MyModule::MyClass
{
public:
  MyModule::MyClass::SeqStr* listContents(const char* locator)
  {
    std::cout << "Locator is " << locator << std::endl;
    std::auto_ptr<MyModule::MyClass::SeqStr> ret(new
MyModule::MyClass::SeqStr);

    ret->length(5);
    (*ret)[0] = "Please";
    (*ret)[1] = "buy";
    (*ret)[2] = "a book";
    (*ret)[3] = "about";
    (*ret)[4] = "CORBA!";
    return ret.release();
  }
};

As we discussd on this list before, you can also use the CORBA inbuild
memory management instead of auto_ptr (which would be
MyModule::MyClass::SeqStr_var). Using std::auto_ptr is just my personal
preference.
