A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The Corba jidl tool does not find idl files that have been
#included "xxx" from within another included file.

eg directories and files

/--devel
  |----lib
  | | - Types.idl
  | | - Methods.idl
  |
  |----test
        | - Test.idl


-----------------------------------------
 /devel/lib/Test.idl

#ifndef TYPES_IDL
#define TYPES_IDL

module lib {
module types {

    struct Dummy { long value; };

};};

#endif

-----------------------------------------
 /devel/lib/Methods.idl

#ifndef METHODS_IDL
#define METHODS_IDL

#include "Types.idl"

module lib {
module methods {
    interface Controller {
        void perform(in lib::types::Dummy obj);
    };
};};

#endif

-----------------------------------------
 /devel/test/Test.idl

// (1)
//#include "../lib/Methods.idl"

// (2)
//#include "/devel/lib/Methods.idl"

// (3)
#include <lib/Methods.idl>

module test {
    struct Data { lib::methods::Controller obj };
};


-----------------------------------------

When compiled from directory /devel/test
> jidl Test.idl

/home/rossb/proto/sun/idl/lib/Methods.idl (line 4):
java.io.FileNotFoundException: Types.idl
#include "Types.idl"
         ^
This fails regardless of whether the include is (1)
relative, (2) absolute path, or (3) relative to the a path
specified on the command line (ie jidl -i /devel Test.idl)


jild is interpreting the nested #include relative to its
current directory. Instead it should be interpreted
relative to the directory of the file containing the #include.


This bug can be reproduced always.

CUSTOMER WORKAROUND :
Explicitly list all directories that contain IDL files on
the command line to jidl.
