CORBA: I have several S-expression files that are used to generate
IOPnnnnnnnnn numbers
for every exception and log message in the ORB. I have NOT gotten
around to
including diagnostic and fix information.
Gmbal: Here I use an annotated interface to generate the log messages
which contain
IDs of the form GMBALnnn. I still need to do the resource bundle
generation.
Here again I have not yet done the diagnostic/fix information (also easy
to do here
by adding more information in the annotations).
Either approach results in all information about the exception or log
message being contained in a
entry in one file, which makes maintenance of the information feasible.
