To ensure that stubs from both DCE/RPC and TxRPC can be compiled in the same environment, different header filenames are used in the TxRPC implementation. This should not affect the application programmer since these header files are automatically included in the interface header file generated by the IDL compiler. However, an application program may wish to view these headers to see how a type or function is defined. The new header filenames are listed here:

dce/nbase.h, dce/nbase.idl—renamed rpc/tbase.h and rpc/tbase.idl. Contain the declarations for pre-declared types error_status_t, ISO_LATIN_1, ISO_MULTI_LINGUAL, and ISO_UCS.
dce/idlbase.h—renamed rpc/tidlbase.h. Contains the IDL base types, as defined in the specification (for example, idl_boolean, idl_long_int), and the function prototypes for the stub functions.
dce/pthread_exc.h—renamed rpc/texc.h. Contains the TRY/ CATCH exception handling macros.
dce/rpcsts.h—renamed rpc/trpcsts.h. Contains the exception and status value definitions for the RPC interface.

These header files are located in $TUXDIR/include/rpc. The TxRPC IDL compiler will look in $TUXDIR/include by default as the "system IDL directory."
