Issue 3629: SecurityReplaceable module errors in Security spec 1.7 (sec-rev)
Source:  (, )
Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: There are a few errors in the IDL listed in the Security Service 1.7
spec in the SecurityReplaceable module.  They are:

1. In the Vault interface:

        Security::AuthenticationMethodList
        get_supported_authen_methods(
           in   Security::MechanismType             mechanism;
        );

  There is an extraneous semi-colon after the MechanismType
  parameter.  This should be:

        Security::AuthenticationMethodList
        get_supported_authen_methods(
           in   Security::MechanismType             mechanism
        );

2. In the SecurityContext interface:

        boolean process_discard_token (
            in   Security::OpaqueBuffer      discard_token,
        );

  There is an extraneous comma after the OpaqueBuffer parameter.  This
  should be:

        boolean process_discard_token (
            in   Security::OpaqueBuffer      discard_token
        );

Resolution: close with revised text

Hi,

There are a few errors in the IDL listed in the Security Service 1.7
spec in the SecurityReplaceable module.  They are:

1. In the Vault interface:

        Security::AuthenticationMethodList
        get_supported_authen_methods(
           in   Security::MechanismType             mechanism;
        );

  There is an extraneous semi-colon after the MechanismType
  parameter.  This should be:

        Security::AuthenticationMethodList
        get_supported_authen_methods(
           in   Security::MechanismType             mechanism
        );

2. In the SecurityContext interface:

        boolean process_discard_token (
            in   Security::OpaqueBuffer      discard_token,
        );

  There is an extraneous comma after the OpaqueBuffer parameter.  This
  should be:

        boolean process_discard_token (
            in   Security::OpaqueBuffer      discard_token
        );


Thanks,
