Non-typedef'd arrays in IDL files

[ERDI Gergo <cactus cactus rulez org>]

Suppose I have the following IDL:

    struct Test_st
    {
	long   num;
	string text[2];
    };

Is this valid? (as opposed to requiring an explicit typedef, i.e.:

    typedef string MyStringArray[2];
    struct Test_st
    {
	long          num;
	MyStringArray text;
    };
)

Also, according to the C++ CORBA spec, you need to define auxillary
classes and functions for arrays (like T_dup or T_out), which is of course
quite impossible without an explicit typedef.

thanks,
	Gergo
