[Please use the PRF form below to submit bug reports, problem reports, etc., to the TAO developers and interested users. Send it to tao-bugs@list.isis.vanderbilt.edu, you must be subscribed to the list in order to be able to post to it. If you are using OCI or MicroFocus's versions of TAO do not send bugs to this mailing list, but instead contact those companies for support. Please also send your PRF as plain ASCII text, _not_ uuencoded or as an attachment. We prefer that all bug reports be submitted through github issues. See https://github.com/DOCGroup/ACE_TAO/issues for more information about how to do this. If you are unsure as to whether your problem is a real bug or not then please submit your question to the mailing list using the following form. Not using the problem report form will make it harder or impossible to identify the problem, and in many cases we will be unable to help at all. Also please try to browse the existing github issues and the ChangeLog files to find out if your problem has been solved in a more recent version of TAO. To subscribe to the list see https://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/~schmidt/ACE-mail.html Replace/remove all the explanatory text in brackets before mailing. Please send this form as ASCII text only. Do _not_ send it as an attachment, or as tar'ed, compressed and/or uuencoded text. And limit line lengths to less than 80 characters. PLEASE make your Subject: line as descriptive as possible. Subjects like "TAO bug" or "bug report" are not helpful! Also, do _not_ include the word "help" in the Subject!] When including your config.h and platform_macros.GNU files as requested below, only include the contents if you use the recommended method of including the platform-specific file in your file. If you use a link to the platform-specific file, simply state which one - DO NOT include an entire platform-specific configuration file in the form. 8<----------8<----------8<----------8<----------8<----------8<----------8<--- To: tao-bugs@list.isis.vanderbilt.edu Subject: [area]: [synopsis] TAO VERSION: 3.1.0 ACE VERSION: 7.1.0 HOST MACHINE and OPERATING SYSTEM: If on Windows based OS's, which version of WINSOCK do you use?: TARGET MACHINE and OPERATING SYSTEM, if different from HOST: COMPILER NAME AND VERSION (AND PATCHLEVEL): THE $ACE_ROOT/ace/config.h FILE [if you use a link to a platform- specific file, simply state which one]: THE $ACE_ROOT/include/makeinclude/platform_macros.GNU FILE [if you use a link to a platform-specific file, simply state which one (unless this isn't used in this case, e.g., with Microsoft Visual C++)]: CONTENTS OF $ACE_ROOT/bin/MakeProjectCreator/config/default.features (used by MPC when you generate your own makefiles): AREA/CLASS/EXAMPLE AFFECTED: [What example failed?
