-<ol>
-<li>The first cut of the new <a
- href="http://www.omg.org/cgi-bin/doc?ptc/2003-07-02"> DnC </a>
- specification implementation, which we call DAnCE is available in
- this distribution. DAnCE is housed under <CODE> $CIAO_ROOT
- </CODE>. We plan to enhance DAnCE in the next few months. We believe
- DAnCE will replace existing tool sets in <CODE>
- $CIAO_ROOT/tools</CODE>. There are a few features in
- <CODE>$CIAO_ROOT/tools</CODE> that are missing in the DAnCE
- implementation. Please see <a href="../TODO.html"> TODO </a> file
- for more details. We plan to implement them soon and use DAnCE
- continuously.
-
- <li> The first cut of DAnCE includes two parts:
- <ul>
- <li>
- A modeling tool chain , <a href="http://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/CoSMIC/">
- CoSMIC</a>, which is capable of describing the Assembly/Component
- using <a
- href="http://www.isis.vanderbilt.edu/Projects/gme/default.html">
- GME</a> as the development bed. The artifacts generated from the
- CoSMIC are a set of XML descriptors.
-
- <!-- Tao, I realy don't understand what this means - Bala -->
- <li>This run-time infrastructure that performs the actual deployment
- and configuration, with a superset of the capabilities described in
- OMG DnC specification with CIAO extension. </a>.<p><p>
-
- </ul>
- <!-- Tao, can you please see whether this is needed -->
- In the new DnC run-time framework we have migrated all the
- functionalities present in the old CIAO runtime except the
- Real-Time configuration and Static Configuration, which are
- developed by Washington University in St. Louis. Currently,
- the two CIAO runtime co-exist in our source and the component
- implementation could be used with both framework without much
- change. (For the change that one has to go through please
- read <a href="./switch.html">this</a>.)<p>
-
-
-
- <li> Two operations <CODE> ciao_preactivate ()</CODE> and
- <CODE>ciao_postactivate ()</CODE> have been added to the
- <CODE>SessionComponent</CODE> interface. This implies that component
- developers have to implement those operations within the
- executor. We plan to get around this, i.e., users having to
- implement these two operations, in the next month or so. <p>
-
- <li>
-
- Here is a set of updates in the CIDL Compiler.<p>
- <ul>
- <li>Fixed bugs in generation of inherited: home operations,
- attribute operations, port operations, home factory operations,
- supported operations.<p>
-
- <li>Added support for multiplex uses ports. This implies that users
- could use "uses multiple" in their component definitions. <p>
-
- <li>Added automatic registration of value factories for event
- consumers. This has been long outstanding. This change alleviates
- component developers need to register the valuetype factory of their
- eventtypes with the ORB. <p>
-
- <li>Added support for emits keyword and we now generate navigation
- code for this.<p>
-
- <li>Fixed bug with multiple facets in a build that provide the same
- interface.<p>
-
- <li>Implemented get_all_facets() and get_all_consumers() navigation
- methods.
- </ul>
- <p>
-
-
- <li> CIAO doesn't yet support features that help integrating CORBA
- components with Enterprise Java Beans (EJB).<p>
-
- <li> Test to demonstrate composition of applications with real-time
- behavior using CIAO's real-time extension was added. Please see
- ACE_wrappers/TAO/CIAO/tests/RTCCM/Priority_Test.<p>
-
- <li> The CIAO static configurator tool has been enhanced to support
- processing of RTCORBA policy related information. Please see
- ACE_wrappers/TAO/CIAO/docs/static_ciao_index.html.
