Issue 7682: Rule (35):                                                                                                                                                                                              (mof2idl-ftf)

Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: The home factory operation 'create_<class identifier>'
has the same signature as the 'create' operation
defined by the CCM spec in the implied-IDL
<class identifier>HomeImplicit interface, and for
this reason it seems redundant.


Resolution: 
Revised Text: Resolution:
Indeed, the default create operation is redundant with the CCM specification's implicit create operation (except that it has a different name). We can omit the generation of the default create operation since it exists implicitly.
Revised Text:
Change the specification document as follows:
Adapt rule (35) in section 6.3.1 on page 26 to:
If the class in the model is not abstract, a home interface declaration for the component with the name concatenate ( format_1 ( <class identifier> ), "Home" ) is being generated, managing the component generated following Rule (33).
Change the example (3) IDL accordingly (also page 26):

module MyPackage
{
  // Common Mapping:
  abstract interface MyClassCommon : MOFObject { };
  valuetype MyClassState : truncatable MOFState
  supports MyClassCommon { };

  // CCM Mapping:
  component MyClass supports MyClassCommon {
  attribute MyClassState my_class_state;
  };
  home MyClassHome manages MyClass {
  };
};
