The server is an MFC-based GUI application, which -spawns an additional thread to invoke the ORBs event queue. The -client is a Win32 console application. - -The following are the steps used to integrate a Win32-GUI application -and TAO by adding an additional thread for the ORB: - -Step 1: Creating a MFC-Application wizard-based project - -Step 2: Set the following project settings - - - C++ Settings / Preprocessor - - ACE_HAS_DLL=1, ACE_HAS_MFC=1 - - - Use the MFC-based librarys of ACE & TAO - - e.g. link acemfcd.lib TAOmfcd.lib for the Debug-version! - -Step 3: Add a threadfunction for the ORB - - The ORB has to be started in a separat thread. So introduce a - threadfunction to spawn a separate thread by - e.g. ACE-Thread-Manager. In this function you implement all - the necessary stuff to start an ORB! - -Step 4: Add the thread invocation in the Application - - - Initialize ACE - - - Spawn the thread for the ORB - - At first you have to initialize ACE by calling - - ACE::init() - - as soon as possible in your application. Good places are in - the constructor or in the InitInstance() memberfunction of the - application-calls. In addition you have to spawn the thread - to run the ORB, e.g. ACE_Thread_Manager::instance()->spawn - (spawn_my_orb_thread); - -Step 5: Overwrite the default destructor of the Application-Class - - - Get a reference to the ORB use in the thread - - - Shut down the ORB - - - Wait for the shutdown of the ORB-thread - - - Call ACE::fini() to close the ACE::init()-call - - To shut down the ORB in it's separate thread you need to call - the ORB::shutdown() method of the ORB references in the - thread. To get an reference to this special ORB create an - additional CORBA::ORB_var and initialize it the the same - ORB-name than you initialized the ORB in the thread. So you - get a reference to the same ORB. - -Have fun, - - Martin Botzler <martin.botzler@mchp.siemens.de> - - - |
