Issue 219:  Array slice example (cxx_revision)
Source:  (, )
Nature:  Uncategorized
Severity:  MEDIUM
Summary: Summary: Sec 16.12 Pg 16-27 CORBA 2.0  Why is a Long Array_slice declared to be a typedef Long[]? Why are these locked down rather than allowing a slice to be a class?

Resolution: resolved/closed
Revised Text: Close with explanation that, for arrays to be passed to functions, an array slice must be the element type of the array because
when an array is passed as a function argument, it degenerates to a pointer to the array's row type. This means that, for an
array type T with elements of type E, the slice type must be E.

          to be a typedef Long[]? Why are these locked down rather than     
          allowing a slice to be a class?
