omniORB 2.7.1 and earlier

Description

If an IDL file containing a #pragma prefix ... is included into another IDL file, the prefix will continue to apply to all interfaces below the include directive (or until another prefix is specified).

For example:

  #include <Naming.idl>

  interface foo {};

In this case foo will have repository id "IDL:omg.org/foo:1.0", since Naming.idl contains:

  #pragma prefix "omg.org"

However, if the pragma is inside a module, then the scope is properly restricted to that module.

Workaround

Unfortunately the workaround posted here (until 20/4/99) does not work after all!
