0x13283051 NIDL_CTXUNIMEM
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: Context handle is not valid as a member of a union
Explanation: A context handle cannot be a member of a <kw>(union).
Action: Pass a context handle as a separate parameter to an operation, rather than
embedding it as a member of a <kw>(union).
0x1328314c NIDL_DECINONLY
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: Warning: Operation with [decode] has [in]-only parameter %1$s
Explanation: The client stub for an operation with the <kw>([decode]) attribute decodes
encoded data into operation parameters with the <kw>([out]) attribute. Parameters with
only the <kw>([in]) attribute are ignored.
Action: If any client will encode the data by applying the <kw>([encode]) attribute to the
operation, the operation must contain all <kw>([in,out]) parameters except for the binding
handle parameter.
0x13283149 NIDL_DECNOPARAMS
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: Operation with [decode] must have at least one [out] or [in,out] parameter
Explanation: The client stub for an operation with the <kw>([decode]) ACF attribute
decodes a data stream into the operation’s <kw>([out]) and <kw>([in,out]) parameters.
The <kw>([decode]) attribute is not meaningful on an operation with only <kw>([in])
parameters.
Action: Perhaps you meant to use the <kw>([encode]) attribute on the operation. If not,
either remove the <kw>([decode]) attribute or add the <kw>([out]) attribute to one or
more parameters.
0x13283003 NIDL_DEFAUTOHAN
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: Operation %1$s has no binding handle parameter; [auto_handle] assumed
Explanation: When an operation uses parametric binding, its first parameter is a handle
parameter that determines the location of a server of the interface. Operations whose first
parameter is not of type <kw>(handle_t) and does not have the <kw>([handle]) attribute
are assumed to use nonparametric binding known as <kw>(auto_handle), whereby a
binding is automatically established by the RPC runtime library.
Action: See the documentation on the various binding techniques to determine the best
method for your application.
