0x132830fb NIDL_UNIDISCTYP
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: A union discriminator type must be small, short, long, char, boolean, or enum
Explanation: The discriminator of a <kw>(union), that determines which case of the
<kw>(union) is used, is restricted to integer, character, enumeration, and boolean data
types. Also, <kw>(hyper int) discriminators are not allowed.
Action: Change the discriminator to one of the valid data types. Make sure the data type
of the <kw>(constant) values in the <kw>(case) clauses within the <kw>(union) agree
with the discriminator data type.
0x132830fc NIDL_UNIQATTRHAN
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: The attribute [unique] is invalid on a binding handle parameter
Explanation: The first parameter in an operation is a <kw>(handle) parameter, which is
either of type <kw>(handle_t) or a type with the <kw>([handle]) attribute. A binding
handle parameter cannot have the <kw>([unique]) attribute because it cannot be
<kw>(NULL).
Action: Remove the <kw>([unique]) attribute from the parameter.
0x132830fd NIDL_UNIQATTRPTR
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: The attribute [unique] is valid only for pointer types or array parameter types
Explanation: The <kw>([unique]) attribute modifies the default behavior of any pointer
type or an array parameter data type. It is not valid on other data types. Note that a
<kw>(void *) object is not considered a pointer.
Action: There may be a missing asterisk (<kw>(*)) in your declaration. If not, remove
the <kw>([unique]) attribute.
0x132830fe NIDL_UNIQCTXHAN
Severity: Varies Component: idl
Text: [unique] pointers to context handles are not allowed
Explanation: IDL does not allow <kw>([unique]) pointers to context handles.
Action: If the declaration has the <kw>([unique]) attribute, either explicitly or by default,
change it to a <kw>([ref]) pointer. However, if the declaration is an operation result, it
cannot be a <kw>([ref]) pointer and an operation resulting in a pointer to a context handle
is not valid.
