[omniORB] omniidl and Sequences

[Lindsey, Christopher]

Hi All,

I am using omniidl in omniORB4.2.0 to convert .idl files to .c files for use with Wireshark using the wireshark_be. One problem that I am experience is when I have an .idl that defines a sequence within a sequence, such as the example below. Omniidl converts the .idl file to .c but the resulting C code is missing declaration for testData and Wireshark fails to compile. I can manually add the declaration to the .C file and Wireshark compiles so I know it is a problem with omniidl.

Any help would be appreciated.


module iddMessages
{

typedef sequence <float, 12> a;
typedef sequence <a> b;
typedef sequence <b, 5> testAttenuation;

    struct test
    {
                testAttenuation testData;
    };
};
