[okl4-developer] question on "string" and "smallstring" support

[Kalamkar, Dhiraj D]

smallstring should work. See the naming.idl4 in naming library (libs/naming/include/interfaces/naming.idl4) for reference code. I had used smallstring as in parameter but for using it as out parameter was causing compilation problem in generated code.

So does anybody have a clue on the types that are effectively supported by the 
OKL4 magpie compiler? 
Is there any documentation about it? 
Should I just forget about any "string" like support?
