IDL to C++ mapping of basic and complex types

A series of small IDL source files (*.idl) that you can compile with an IDL compiler to see how it maps some of the basic types to C++. Based on Chapters 4 and 5 of the textbook. You can browse the *.h and *.cc files the MICO IDL compiler produces; these are the files I was showing in class. Try these on your own and continue experimenting with the mappings discussed in the remaining sections of Chapters 4 and 5. There is a zip file you can download containing the existing *.idl files.
