Re: does this dynamic_cast<> bug know?

Hi Alexander,

I have committed the changes to IDLStruct and IDLUnion to CVS.

If GCC 2.95 support is important to you, would you please checkout the 
latest version of orbitcpp from CVS and check if the idl-compiler output 
compiles. After 1.3.6 was released a large adjustment was made to the 
generated code and I can only to test it with GCC 3.2.
