[cosmic-users] RE: Help running tao_picml on CIAO DanCE BasicSP example

[Jeff Parsons]

Hi,

Just checked in a fix for this, sorry it took so long for me to
get to it. Actually, the problem stems from the fact that your
spelling of BasicSP.idl on the command line differs in case.
GME ids of everything are stored in a table in the tao_picml
backend, using filenames as keys for the files on the command
line (and repo ids for everything else). When the include of
BasicSP.idl was found in the other files, its GME id (for using
in the reference attribute of the XML) couldn't be found. This
error was not caught, leading to the incorrect XME file which
wouldn't load into GME. My fix now makes sure that omissions
of IDL files on the command line, or spellings that differ in
case, are cuaght and reported. The case-sensitvity is necessary
since tao_picml could also be run on a UNIX platform, where
filenames are case sensitive.

Thanks for reporting the bug.

Jeff
