[omniORB] Omniidl and python packages

[Cetateanu Marius-B01107]

Hi,

I have an IDL file named Example.idl. I'm generating the python stub
from this file with the following
command line: omniidl -bpython -Wbpackage=intf.stubsCORBA. According to
the documentation -Wbpackage should
put both python modules and stub files in package intf.stubsCORBA. As a
result of the command I have the
following: intf/stubsCORBA/Example and intf/stubsCORBA/Example__POA
directories with the __init__.py files in them;
both of files contain the following import "import
intf.stubsCORBA.Example_idl". So far so good. But
in the Example_idl.py file which is generated in intf/stubsCORBA/ I get
the __name__ variable (at the end of the file)
set in the following way:
"
#
# End of module "Example"
#
__name__ = "intf.stubsCORBA.intf.stubsCORBA.Example_idl"
"
The fact that the name of the package was doubled causes my program
which uses Example to fail. Is the doubled name correct? If it's correct
then why the import in the __init__.py was generated without the doubled
name?

Thanks

Sorry!
I forgot to mention that I use omniORB 4.3.1 with omniORBpy 3.3. This
behavior was not present with the previous version I used: omniORB 4.0.7
with omniORBpy 2.7.

It's a bug. I've fixed it in svn.

What is your program doing? Normally the name of the module isn't
required for anything. It's only set for information, really.

Cheers,

Duncan.

My program has a custom way of loading the python modules (based on the
import module from Python)
so it was getting confused by those doubled names.
