It is simple because it circumvent the mechanism to read the -XML descriptors and therefore there's no way to configure the -container or the component server thru these XML descriptors. It is, -however, useful for testing the correct functioning of a single -component and its home (as you don't need to jump thru a bunch of -hoops to instantiate them for testing.) - -Running -------- - -To run the component server, invoke it from command line as foloowing: - - Simple_Component_Server -c -i <config_file> -o <home or component ior_output_filename> - -The <config_file> contains information the component server needs to -install component implementations. The detail format of the file will -be explained at the end of this file. This configuration mechanism -should eventually be replaced by the standard component deployment -interfaces so component are installed and instantiated through a set -of interfaces. - -If "-c" flag is specify, the simple component server creates a -component writes the IOR for the component into the file specified by --o flag. Otherwise, only the component home is instantiated and the -IOR for the home is written to the file. - -The <ior_output_filename> points to the file name where the -component server will output the IOR to. - -Server Configuration: ---------------------- -There is currently not much to configure for the component server. - - -Config file format: -------------------- - -We are temporarily using a config file to read in the list of -components that are to be installed into the component server. Each -line of the configuration file contains a set of information for -installing one component home (the component home manages the life -cycle for managed comopnent instances.) These info. are delimited by -the vertical bar '|' characters. Here is an example for the -"HelloHome" component home in -$(CIAO_ROOT)/examples/handcrafted/Hello/. - -hello_executors|createHelloHome_Impl|hello_servants|createHelloHome_Servant|IDL:omg.org/HelloHome:1.0|IDL:omg.org/HelloWorld:1.0|HelloHome - -Here's a breakdown of what each field contains: - -0 -> Name of the DLL containing component and component home executors -1 -> Entry point (factory method) for the previous DLL -2 -> Name of the DLL containing component and component home servant - glue code. -3 -> Entry point (factory method) for the previous DLL -4 -> Repo ID for the component home interface -5 -> Repo ID for the managed component interface -6 -> Canonical name for the installed component home. - -** Currently, only the first 4 config values are used (field 0-3). - -Todos ------ - -Improve the command line processing routine.
