Re: [mico-devel] Marshall exception

[Gregory, P. <Pet...@lo...>]

Hi

I have tracked this issue down and can confirm it is another problem
caused by the upgrade to gcc version 4.4.  

 

A different problem with the same cause was reported in the issue
"typecode assertion failed on gcc 4.4
<https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=29183633> ". 

 

The issue is caused by a change in behaviour of the switch statement.

With this version of gcc the switch statement in CORBA::TypeCode::decode
(DataDecoder &dc, MapPosTC *_omap, ULong level),

now enters the default block instead of the "case TK_RECURSIVE:" block.
This is because the value of TK_RECURSIVE is outside the range of the
TCKind enum.

 

I made the relevant changes to typecode.cc and tckind.h, and the issue
is resolved.
