- <h1>TAO ORB Internals</h1>
-
- <P>This document will describe how the ORB internals work, with
- special attention to the areas that are more poorly documented.
- For example: we will not document (at least initially) the
- pluggable protocols framework, the interpretive marshaling
- engine, the POA, the waiting strategies and the
- leader-follower.
- </P>
- <P>New ORB developers are expected to read this document and
- document here all the things that they find hard to understand,
- surprizing or event broken.
- New members of the ORB core team are expected to fill in details
- that were not explained before.
- </P>
-
- <H3>Client Side event sequence</H3>
-
- <P>In this section we will document the sequence of calls and
- interactions on the client side.
- Only the synchronous case, without forwarding or exceptions is
- documented at this point.
- </P>
-
- <P>Assume the application invokes a method on an object reference,
- in the generated stub for that method the following sequence is
- started:
- <UL>
- <LI>creates TAO_GIOP_Twoway_Invocation object
- </LI>
- <LI>calls start method on the invocation object
- </LI>
-
- <LI>TAO_GIOP_Twoway_Invocation::start:
- <UL>
- <LI>finds the profile to use for this invocation
- </LI>
- <LI>passes the profile to Connector Registry to obtain
- TAO_Transport object (wrapper around Service_Handler)
- </LI>
- <LI>generates and marshalls GIOP & Request headers for this
- invocation
- </LI>
- </UL>
- </LI>
-
- <LI>marshalls request parameters
- </LI>
- <LI>calls invoke method on the invocation object
- </LI>
-
- <LI>TAO_GIOP_Twoway_Invocation::invoke:
- <UL>
- <LI>sets TAO_Reply_Dispatcher (this is used to make both
- synch and asynch requests look the same)
- </LI>
- <LI>sends the request
- </LI>
- <LI>waits on the TAO_Wait_Strategy
- </LI>
- </UL>
- </LI>
-
- <LI>if there was a minor problem or location forward, tries
- again: call TAO_GIO_Twoway_Invocation::start, etc.
- </LI>
- <LI>if everything went ok, demarshalls reply
- </LI>
- </UL>
- </P>
