14 HP DCE 1.7 Application Development Tools Release Note

Known Problems and Work Arounds

DCE-OO-Tools

The following problems and work arounds in HP DCE-OO-Tools,

documented at HP DCE 1.4.1, 1.5, and 1.6, are also applicable at this

version:

• You should minimize your application’s dependencies on protected

and private members and member functions as their features may

change in a future release.

• When using C++ to develop DCE applications, you should adhere to

the following advice:

✓ Do not enable cancellation of a thread.

✓ Do not allow DCE exceptions to propagate into a C++ scope

without appropriate DCE-to-C++ mapping.

✓ Install both the C and C++ compilers because the DCE

communications stub ﬁles-which must be compiled-are generated

in C.

✓ Ensure that the correct libraries and ﬂags are being used for

compiling the application.

NOTE For more information, see HP OODCE Product Notes in the online help
