OMG IDL identifiers are case insensitive; that is, two identifiers that differ only in the case of their characters are considered
redefinitions of one another. However, all references to a definition must use the same case as the defining occurrence. This
allows natural mappings to case-sensitive languages. For example:
module M { typedef long Long; // Error: Long clashes with keyword long typedef long TheThing; interface I {
typedef long MyLong; myLong op1( // Error: inconsistent capitalization in TheThing thething; // Error: TheThing clashes with
thething ); }; };
