> Trace output parameters on methods
> ----------------------------------

>          Key: AXISCPP-641
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXISCPP-641
>      Project: Axis-C++
>         Type: Bug

>   Components: Trace Utility
>     Reporter: Mark Whitlock

>
> Currently the trace tool traces all parameters to a method on entry to that 
> method, and the return value on exit. However parameters passed by address or 
> reference may be updated by the method and so are really output or inout 
> parameters. These inout/output parameters should be traced on exit from the 
> method. This is slightly harder than it looks since the entry trace must 
> cache pointers and references to cope with code like...
> void func(int *p1) {
>   *p1 = 5;
>   p1 = new int;
>   *p1 = 6;
> }
> The caller of this method gets back 5 not 6.
