Issue 2882:  Missing exception for all_*_links operation (mof-rtf)
Source:  (, )
Nature:  Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: Summary: The Association template in 5.8.10 of MOF 1.3 states that the
 all_<association_name>_links() operation should raise MofError.
 The corresponding operations in the IDL for the MOF Model does not
 raise the exception, either in chapter 3 or the IDL appendix.
 

Resolution: see above
Revised Text: For each section 3.5.x that describes an Association in the MOF Model, change the IDL section as follows: 

      <AssocName>LinkSet all_<assoc_name>_links(); 

to 

      <AssocName>LinkSet all_<assoc_name>_links() 
              raises (Reflective::MofError); 

Make the same changes to the IDL in Appendix B.1

Discussion: 
The Association template is correct and the IDL is incorrect.  As the template says, "the operations signature raises MofError to allow Constraint error and Semantic error conditions to be signalled."

The Association template in 5.8.10 of MOF 1.3 states that the
all_<association_name>_links() operation should raise MofError.
The corresponding operations in the IDL for the MOF Model does not
raise the exception, either in chapter 3 or the IDL appendix.

Discussion:

I think that this is a bug in the IDL.  An
all_<association_name>_links()
operation needs to be able to raise MofError in the case of a
Constraint 
or Semantic error.

Proposed Resolution:

The Association template is correct and the IDL is incorrect.  As the
template says, "the operations signature raises MofError to allow
Constraint
error and Semantic error conditions to be signalled."

Proposed Revised Text:

For each section 3.5.x that describes an Association in the MOF Model, 
change the IDL section as follows:

  <AssocName>LinkSet all_<assoc_name>_links();

to

  <AssocName>LinkSet all_<assoc_name>_links()
      raises (Reflective::MofError);

Make the same changes to the IDL in Appendix B.1
