[omniORB] Long double mapping

[Michael Shearer]

Salut Frédéric,
 
It depends on your compiler, some of them are able to emulate it in software.  I know GCC supports it. Take a look at /usr/include/omniORB4/CORBA_sysdep_auto.h:86, this is where LongDouble are defined.
 
Hope that helps.
 
Mike

Subject: [omniORB] Long double mapping



Hello all, 

Is the IDL type "long double"  supported on 32 bits platforms ? 

I did declare a long double attribute in an IDL file and omniidl didn't complain about it. 
It generate a CORBA::LongDouble 

But when compiling stubs and skeleton, I get an error that says that CORBA::LongDouble is unknown... 


What is wrong: 
- omniidl grammar that is too permissive 
- omniidl mapping rules 
- omniORB 4.0.3  (NT4.0 platform) do not provide a mapping 
- me! 

Thanks
