Issue 3229: Components: Relationship of CIDL and PSDL unclear (components-ftf)
Source: Humboldt-Universitaet (Mr. Martin von Loewis, loewis(at)informatik.hu-berlin.de)
Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: The draft component specification (ptc/99-10-04) explains that CIDL is
a superset of IDL. This is a derivation from the specification
voted-on in the PTC (orbos/99-07-01), which specified that CIDL is a
superset of PSDL.

Also, declaring CIDL not to be a superset of PSDL means that the
<catalog_use_dcl>, <abstract_storage_home_binding> etc become
meaningless, as they refer to entities from PSDL.

Proposed Resolution: Declare CIDL to be a superset of PSDL.
Resolution: See issue 3065.
