    Hi, I'm new to CORBA and IDL and am going through the online tutorial at sun.java.com:
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/idl/tutorial/GSIDL.html

    I'v written the HelloWorld idl file(word for word from the tutorial) and saved it. When I try to compile it I get the error:

    hello.idl (line 1): Expected one of `typedef' `struct' `union' `enum' `const' `exception' `interface' `valuetype' `module'; encountered `{'.

    I have installed "JDK 1.3.1" and "J2EE sdk1.4 Beta2" on my computer.

    I tried compiling a different program and I got the same error. Anyone have any ideas as to what's going wrong?
    Not sure if it'd have anything to do with it but, could it be something missing from the CLASSPATH or PATH. I think I have them set up alright.
