PI69613: "DIAGDEVICE" GENERALIZATION ON "DEVICE" HAS THE MODIFIER VIRTUAL, CAUSES THE VIRTUAL KEY WORD TO BE GENERATED TO THE .IDL FILE

IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.2

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Description:
  
  The customer is using CORBA on Rhapsody 8.1.5 on Windows 7. They
  observed incorrect CORBA IDL interface definition generation
  when updating from Rhapsody 5.2 to 8.1.5.
  
  The following is generated:
  
  interface DiagDevice : virtual POA_CF::Device, virtual
  DiagServicesAPI::DiagComponent, virtual
  DiagServicesAPI::ActionProvider, virtual
  POA_NG::RS::JTRS::DiagServicesAPI::OnModuleLogProvider {
              };
  
  However, the inclusion of "virtual" before the scoped name, is
  incorrect grammar for a CORBA IDL interface declaration
  according to the OMG Specification, v 3.0.
  
  
  Attachment:
  
  Attached is a .zip with their sample model. It works with the
  default 8.1.5 Share folder, and you can point it to the
  CORBA.sbs in the \Share\Properties\ folder.
  
  For the interface declaration issues involving the use of
  "virtual", the relevant files are:
  
  
  
  DiagDevice.idl
  
  DeviceImpl.h
  
  
  
  The "virtual" inclusion in the interface declaration is improper
  grammar.
