Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: The Object metaclass defines the base for all classes in a MOF metamodel. The same role is played by the MOFObject interface which was introduced to have a common base type in IDL for all kinds of derived interfaces. The is_equals() operation in the MOFObject interface should be renamed to equals() to match the equals operation in MOF2.0.

Actions taken:
November 15, 2005: received issue
March 8, 2006: closed issue
Discussion: 
The MOFObject interface declaration on page 13 should now be:
abstract interface MOFObject{
	boolean equals( in MOFObject other_object)
	//the rest as before
}

done
The IDL for MOFObject in section 7.3 was changed from

abstract interface MOFObject {
     MofId get_mof_id () raises (MofError);
     boolean is_equal ( in MOFObject other_object )
				raises (MofError);
     void delete () raises (MofError);
     MofErrorBagIterator verify( in unsigned long depth )
				raises (MofError);

     void set_value_depth( in unsigned long depth )
				raises (MofError);
     unsigned long get_value_depth ()
				raises (MofError);

     void set_call_semantic( in boolean as_value )
				raises (MofError);
     boolean get_call_semantic ()
				raises (MofError);
  };
to
abstract interface MOFObject {
     MofId get_mof_id () raises (MofError);
     boolean equals ( in MOFObject other_object )
				raises (MofError);
     void delete () raises (MofError);
     boolean verify( in wstring ocl_expr )
				raises (MofError);
     void set_value_depth( in unsigned long depth )
				raises (MofError);
     unsigned long get_value_depth ()
				raises (MofError);
     void set_call_semantic( in boolean as_value )
				raises (MofError);
     boolean get_call_semantic ()
