This function is only used by Python.pm, and was assuming any argument
unrecognised by hasType is a name. It sometimes isn't, resulting in
structures like this:
{
'DATA' => {
'TYPE' => 'STRUCT'
},
'NAME' => {
'TYPE' => 'STRUCT',
'ALIGN' => undef,
'SURROUNDING_ELEMENT' => undef,
'ORIGINAL' => {
'TYPE' => 'STRUCT',
'FILE' => 'source3/librpc/idl/smbXsrv.idl',
'LINE' => 101,
'NAME' => 'tevent_context'
},
'ELEMENTS' => undef,
'NAME' => 'tevent_context',
'PROPERTIES' => undef
},
'TYPE' => 'TYPEDEF'
};
The problem with that is we end up with the HASH reference as a name
in Python bindings, like this
PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "Can not convert C Type struct HASH(0x5e2dfe5ee278) from Python");
which makes the build nondeterministic (as well as making the message
a little mysterious).
I think all the structures for which this happens are marked
'[ignore]' in IDL, meaning they are not transmitted on the wire. They
should perhaps also not have useless Python getsetters, but let's call
that a different problem.
Thanks to Freexian and the Debian LTS project for sponsoring this work.
