Summary: Subject: There is no way to find out how Tagged Components are

Revised Text: Close Issue 2958 3044 3047
About not being able to get IOR components for
supported security mechanisms:
[Add the following end of the Vault section. Add on page 15-173
before the "The Security Context Object" header.]
create_ior_components
This operation is called to create a set of security related
TaggedComponents that indicate the security mechanisms supported by the
Vault and the given set of Credentials objects.
IOP::TaggedComponentList create_ior_components(
in SecurityLevel2::CredentialsList creds_list
);
Parameters
creds_list This argument lists the credentials that are to be
considered in creating the Tagged Components.
Return Value
This operation returns the Tagged Components. Add the following to the Consolidate IDL Appendix A.7. Security
Replaceable Service Interfaces, add:
#include <IOP.idl>
and in the definition of the Vault, add:
IOP::TaggedComponentList create_ior_components(
in SecurityLevel2::CredentialsList creds_list
);
