[omniORB] sequence definition and mapping

[Henrik Schulz]

Hi,
creating a sequence or an array by specifiing in the IDL file:

typedef sequence <short,1024> ShortBuffer;

and using a method like this:

long method(ShortBuffer& buffer)
  {
  return  streamBuffer->Write(buffer._buffer,buffer._length);
  }

I defined as written in the CORBA specs the struct such as this :

  #ifndef _CORBA_sequence_short_defined
  #define _CORBA_sequence_short_defined

  typedef struct
    {
    CORBA_unsigned_long  _maximum;
    CORBA_unsigned_long  _length;
    short*              _buffer;
    } CORBA_sequence_short;
  #endif

but the compiler complaints of CORBA_unsigned_long, because it is not
existing in the header files of
omniORB.
How the sequence struct for the implementation should look like instead?

thanks in advance,
cheers,
henrik
