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 simple time server given in chapter 3 of the book. + There is a server process which holds a servant object which can return + the current Greenwich time, and a client process which can acess this + object. + +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 CORBA::Environment variables are not created in the IDL generated + stubs and skeletons. + + 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, prints out the current + time, and 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. |
