The paper deals with the topological structure of the feasible set of a generalized semiinfinite programming problem which can be considered as a level set of a corresponding marginal function. The main result is a codimension formula which shows that there is a wide range of possible generic situations which can occur around a feasible boundary point. Two of these situations are investigated in detail: Firstly, the feasible set is locally diffeomorphic to the non-negative orthant, thus, to the intersection of finitely many closed halfspaces (corner point). Secondly, the feasible set is locally diffeomorphic to the union of finitely many closed halfspaces (re-entrant corner point). The latter situation is typical for the considered class of problems and does not appear in standard (semi-infinite) optimization.
