I don't care about interoperability with Java (yet).
I am interested in compiling some third party IDL files
available here:
http://www.jtrs.sarda.army.mil/docs/documents/sca.html

These files include wchar, and long double.

I'm not even using the interfaces which use wchar and long
double.

I can hack these IDL files so that they don't include
wchar and long double, but I'd rather not.

Is there an option I can pass to omniidl, so that it will
not choke on an IDL file, but instead will refuse to generate
code for types it does not support?

Hmmmm...I notice your e-mail is from DSTC.  Do you guys
still support fnorb, or is that history?

Thanks.
