2449.0. "obb$quick prblm on VAX V6.2, OBB V2.7" by SWETSC::EKLUND (On a clear day you can see forever) Thu Mar 06 1997 01:58

	Hi, 

	Having no knowledge at all of OBB I have this 
	problem in my hands from a customer. 

	Can I please get some help ?

	Problem: genereration of quick application on 
	OpenVMS VAX V6.2, OBB V2.7.


$ @sys$system:obb$quick test.idl cxx build
$ type test.idl
/*********************************************************/
/*
/*
/* synopCorba.idl
/(*
/*      Contains description of the CORBA interface for
/*      siganlling and storing SYNOP's into ROAD
/*

/*********************************************************/

interface synopTypes{



typedef long tgmFormatType[113];

};


module synopCorba{


        interface synop:synopTypes{

                // operations
                short storeSynop(in tgmFormatType tgm);
        };

};



Running the output, the client, gives this accvio:

$ run testclient
%SYSTEM-F-ACCVIO, access violation, reason mask=04, virtual 
address=0000020C, PC
=00003D40, PSL=03C00000
%TRACE-F-TRACEBACK, symbolic stack dump follows
module name     routine name                     line       rel PC    
abs PC

TESTSTUB        __init_TESTSTUB7115BB            8860      
0000003C  00003D40
                                                           
0001B611  0001B611
$

	Now, if we instead of using C++ uses C-code it works.

    I could not reproduce this on V2.7-11 on VAX/VMS V6.1. Have the
    customer compile and link the client image by hand - just cut
    and paste the cxx and link commands from the obb$quick output
    and add /debug. Then run the program and see where it dies.
    

    Hi,
    
    and thanx for the help. 
    
    We tried and it happens 'early' in the code, well before his code
    starts. We guess it happens in the code from LIBOBBCXX.OLB. So we 
    thought that we should take the LIBOBBCXX.OLB from V2.7-11 and try.

    Hi,
    
    This took some time but since we upgraded the compiler from V5.4-010 to
    V5.5 the code executes fine.
    
    Thanx for the assistance.
