+Chapters 8 and 10 example.
+______________________________________________________________________________
+This example been taken from the book "Advanced CORBA Programming with C++" 
+by Michi Henning and Steve Vinoski. Copyright 1999. Addison-Wesley, Reading, 
+MA.  To make the examples work with TAO, some minor modifications to the 
+source code have been made, with permission, by Mike Moran <mm4@cs.wustl.edu>.
+All of these changes are documented in the file CHANGES, in this directory.

+
+Summary:
+    This is the most basic version of the climate control system presented 
+    throughout the book.   The client is presented in chapter 8 and the
+    server in chapter 10.
+
+Building:
+    This example must be built with native C++ exceptions, and with an ACE/TAO 
+    build with exceptions.  Make sure to use TAO_FLAG Ge=0 to ensure
+    that the IDL generated code uses c++ exceptions rather than creating 
+    CORBA_Environment variables.
+
+    With GNU make, simply type
+     % make exceptions=1
+    to create the executable server and client.
+
+server:
+    The server takes no parameters nor command line options and returns an 
+    IOR to stdout.  The server then waits infinitely for clients requests.
+
+client:
+    The client takes an IOR from the command line, narrows this to a 
+    controller reference, makes several remote calls on this controller, and 
+    finally terminates.
+
+run_test.pl:
+    This is currently a UNIX only script!  It starts up the server, redirecting
+    stdout to a file, then passes the file's contents to the command line of
+    the client.  After the client terminates, the server is killed.
