[Orbit-python-list] Bug with unusual IDL

[Duncan G. <dg...@uk...>]

Hi,

I'm working on a Python/CORBA tutorial, so I'm experimenting with
ORBit-Python. I noticed a problem with the following unusual, but
legal, IDL:

  module M {
    union U switch ( enum E { one, two } ) {
    case one:
      long l;
    case two:
      short s;
    };
  };

The unusual thing is that the switch kind is declared _inside_ the
switch specification. The IDL specification says that the enum E is
inside the scope of the union. This means the enumerators should be
available to Python as M.U.one and M.U.two. They aren't. In fact, as
far as I can tell, they aren't available anywhere.

Cheers,

Duncan.
