[jacorb-developer] JacORB 3.4 CORBA_InterfaceRepository.idl - bug?

[Nick Cross]

Hmmm. Section 10.8 in CORBA 3 implies it should not have the is_abstract 
as does http://www.omg.org/issues/issue3015.txt but the separate IDL on 
the OMG site contradicts that.

Perhaps adding the comma would suffice ? A bugzilla and/or pull request 
would be welcome ;-)

Cheers

Nick
