-*-Mode: Outline;-*-
* Transactions.
Transaction handling (or the use of mnesia:async_dirty) is not very
good at error checking. Code to handle errors from transactions must
be added. Right now it is not possible to mix atomic transactions
with dirty 'transactions' (i.e. async_dirty) and still check the
results consistently. This must be fixed if we are to read with
async_dirty instead of transaction, since we still want to do all
the writes with transaction and not async_dirty.
(This point might be moot. Simple reads are now done with
mnesia:dirty_read/1 outside of transactions).
* Unresolved issues.
There are some places in the source code marked with '***' where the
code should be verified. It mostly concerns minor unresolved
unclarities in the specification.
** orber_ifr_contained.erl
In move/4 there is a call to orber_ifr_contained:lookup_name/5. The
third argument, Levels_to_search, is set to -1, which means search
all contained objects. This is probably correct.
** orber_ifr_interfacedef.erl
The function describe_interface/1 describes the interface without
its inherited interfaces. It is not clear whether this is correct or
not. It is possible to get a description of the inherited interfaces
by mapping describe_interface/1 on the list if interfaces returned
by get_base_interfaces/1. Also, since the structs
InterfaceDescription and FullInterfaceDescription both have a field
named base_interfaces, it is possible to get a description of the
inherited attributes by examining that field and applying a describe
function.
** orber_ifr_orb.erl
create_union_tc/4 sets the fifth element in the typecode tuple to
-1, meaning no default case.
** orber_ifr_repository.erl
The PrimitiveDef with kind pk_objref has an empty Id and an empty
Name. This is perhaps not correct.
** orber_ifr_typecode.erl
None of the functions in this module are fully implemented and they
should not be used.
** orber_ifr_uniondef.erl
*** '_set_members'/2
What should the value of the discriminator-typecode be when updating
the type attribute? (CORBA 2.0, p 6-20). For now we just leave it
unchanged, but this is perhaps not the right thing to do.
* Exceptions should give more information about the failure.
