omniORB 2.7.0

Description

The on-the-wire representation of the TypeCode for a sequence type is erroneous. The marshalling and unmarshalling operations are consistently wrong - so omniORB 2.7.0 applications interoperate without problem. However there will be problems when passing sequence TypeCodes to/from other versions or vendors (including passing sequence values in Anys).

The fault is that the sequence bound is marshalled before the element's TypeCode, rather than after as it should be.

See also report 48.
