3.5b: wrong method call to check existence of set optional data member

blair

On Optional Data Members - Ice 3.5 - ZeroC

CPtr c = new C;
c->name = "xyz";           // required
c->active = true;          // required
c->alternateName = "abc";  // optional
c->overrideCode = 42;      // optional
 
if(c->alternateName)
    cout << "alt name = " << c->alternateName << endl;

Should the second to last line be:

if(c->hasAlternateName)

Hi,

The manual is correct, the hasXxx methods are only present with the Java language mapping.

Cheers,
Benoit.
