Thanks, Gerald. 1553 2 iliyan 2005-09-09 23:54:59 +0000 Is org.jacorb.idl.TypeMap.removeDefinition() supposed to throw a runtime exception when the type definition of a symbol (constant, in this particular case) is not found? 1566 3 spiegel 2005-10-03 22:48:58 +0000 This should be fixed now by the patch for bug 616, which I just installed.
