-.SM ORB.
-All applications that use TAO can take advantage of the environment variables
-and command line options described in this manual page.
-.SH TAO ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
-.TP
-.B NameServiceIOR
-Specifies which IOR the TAO Naming Service is listening on.
-.TP

-.TP
-.B TAO_ORB_DEBUG
-Enables TAO debugging mode.
-.SH TAO OPTIONS
-The following components can be tuned via options:
-.IP
-.B CORBA::ORB
-.IP
-.B TAO_Resource_Factory
-.IP
-.B TAO_Default_Server_Strategy_Factory
-.IP
-.B TAO_Default_Client_Strategy_Factory
-.TP
-.B CORBA::ORB
-Typically, CORBA::ORB options are set via command line parameters, while the
-rest of the options are set via the service configurator
-.B (svc.conf)
-file.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBsvcconf \ config_file_name
-\ \ Specifies the name of the file from which it will read dynamic service
-configuration directives ala ACE's Service Configurator.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBsvcconfdirective \ directivestring
-\ \ Specifies a service configuration directive, which is passed to ACE's
-Service Configurator.
-.IP
-.B \-ORBdaemon
-\ \ Specifies that the ORB should daemonize itself.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBdebug
-\ \ Turns on the output of debugging messages within ACE's Service
-Configurator componentry.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBdebuglevel \ level
-\ \ Control the level of debugging in the ORB. Higher number produce more
-output (try 10).
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBhost \ hostname
-\ \ Tells the Object Adapter to listen for requests on the interface associated with the host named
-.I hostname.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBport \ portspec
-\ \ Tells the Object Adapter to listen for requests on the port specified by
-.IR portspec ,
-which can be a name as found in
-.B /etc/services
-or a number. The default is 10013.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBobjrefstyle \ IOR | URL
-\ \ Specifies the user-visible style of object references.
-.B IOR
-is the traditional nonsensical object reference.
-.B URL
-makes the object reference look more like a URL.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBtablesize \ object_table_size
-\ \ Specifies the size of the object table as a positive, non-zero integer. If
-not specified, the default is 64.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBrcvsock \ receive_qabuffer_size
-\ \ Specify the size of the socket receive buffer as a positive, non-zero
-integer. If not specified, the system-dependent default is used.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBsndsock \ send_buffer_size
-\ \ Specify the size of the socket send buffer as a positive, non-zero
-integer. If not specified, the system-dependent default is used.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBnameserviceport \ portspec
-\ \ Specifies which port the Naming Service is listening on.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBnameserviceior \ IOR
-\ \ Specifies the
-.I IOR
-for the Naming Service.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBtradingserviceior \ IOR
-\ \ Specifies the
-.I IOR
-for the Trading Service.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBtradingserviceport \ portspec
-\ \ Specifies which port the Trading Service is listening on.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBcollocation \ yes | no
-\ \ Specifies the use of collocation object optimization. Default is
-.IR yes .
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBpreconnect \ host:port
-.BR [,
-.I host:port
-.RB ... ]
-\ \ Pre-establishes a blocking connection to each listed host:port combination.
-If a connection cannot be established, a warning is announced and it continues
-with the next listed. Listing the same combination multiple times will properly
-establish multiple connections to that endpoint.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBcdrtradeoff \ maxsize
-\ \ Control the strategy to tradeoff between copy vs no copy marshalling of
-octet sequences. If an octet sequence is smaller than maxsize and the current
-message block contains enough space for it the octet sequence is copied instead
-of appended to the CDR stream.
-.IP
-.B \-ORBgioplite
-\ \ Enable a lightweight version of the GIOP protocol. This protocol removes
-some of the fields in the GIOP and the Request header. It only works on
-homogenous environments.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBdotteddecimaladdresses \ boolean
-(0/1) Use the dotted decimal notation for addresses.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBInitRef\ ObjectId=IOR
-\ \ Allows specification of an arbitrary object reference for an initial
-service. The IOR could be in the one of the following formats:
-.BR OMG\ IOR , \ URL \ or \ iioploc
-form.
-.B iioploc
-is a multiple end-point IORs understood by
-.B string_to_object\ ()
-and used as a boot-strapping mechanism by
-.BR resolve_initial_references\ () .
-The mappings specified through this argument override the
-.B orb-install-time
-defaults.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBDefaultInitRef \ IOR_prefix
-\ \ This argument allows resolution of initial references not explicitly
-specified with -ORBInitRef. It requires a URL prefix that, after appending a
-slash
-.B '/'
-and a simple object key, forms a new URL to identify an initial object
-reference. The URL prefix format currently supported is iioploc.
-.TP
-.B TAO_Resource_Factory
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBresources \ global | tss
-\ \ Specify whether each thread uses a global or a thread\-specific (
-.I tss
-) instance for the resources it returns.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBpoa \ global | tss
-\ \ Specify whether each thread uses a global or a thread\-specific (
-.I tss
-) instance for the Root POA.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBreactorlock \ token | null
-\ \ Specify whether the ORB reactor is thread\-safe (
-.I token
-) or not (
-.I null
-). Default is
-.IR token .
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBcoltable \ global | orb
-\ \ Specify whether each ORB uses a global or a per\-ORB (
-.I orb
-) collocation table.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBinputcdrallocator \ global | tss
-\ \ Specify whether the ORB uses a global or a per\-thread (
-.I tss
-) allocator for the incoming CDR buffers. Though
-.I tss
-should give the optimal performance; we made the default
-.IR global .
-TAO optimizations for octet sequences will not work when returning that data
-type if the allocator is
-.IR tss .
-Using a
-.I global
-allocator also allows the users to take advantage of the TAO octet sequence
-extensions to preserve the buffer after the upcall.
-.TP
-.B TAO_Default_Server_Strategy_Factory
-.IP
-.IR Note :
-.B \-ORBdemuxstrategy
-flag has been changed to
-.B \-ORBsystemidpolicydemuxstrategy
-and
-.BR \-ORBuseridpolicydemuxstrategy .
-.IP
-.IR Note :
-.B \-ORBtablesize
-flag has been changed to
-.BR \-ORBactiveobjectmapsize .
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBconcurrency \ reactive | thread\-per\-connection
-\ \ Specify which concurrency strategy to use. Range of values is
-.I reactive
-for
-a purely Reactor\-driven concurrency strategy or
-.I thread\-per\-connection
-for creating a new thread to service each connection.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBactiveobjectmapsize \ active_object_map_size
-\ \ Specify the size of the active object map. If not specified, the default
-value is 64.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBuseridpolicydemuxstrategy \ dynamic | linear
-\ \ Specify the demultiplexing lookup strategy to be used with the user ID
-policy. This option defaults to use the
-.I dynamic
-strategy.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBsystemidpolicydemuxstrategy \ dynamic | linear | active
-\ \ Specify the demultiplexing lookup strategy to be used with the system ID
-policy. This option defaults to use the
-.I active
-strategy.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBuniqueidpolicyreversedemuxstrategy \ dynamic | linear
-\ \ Specify the reverse demultiplexing lookup strategy to be used with the
-unique ID policy. This option defaults to use the
-.I dynamic
-strategy.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBallowreactivationofsystemids \ 0 | 1
-\ \ Specify whether system ids can be reactivated, i.e., once an id that was
-generated by the system has be deactivated, will the user reactivate a new
-servant using the old ID. If the user is not going to use this feature, the
-IORs can be shortened, an extra comparison in the critical upcall path removed,
-and some memory on the server side can be saved. This option defaults to
-.IR 1 .
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBactivehintinids \ 0 | 1
-\ \ Specify whether an active hint should be added to IDs. With active hints,
-IDs can be found quickly. However, they lead to larger IORs. Note that this
-option is disregarded if
-.B \-ORBallowreactivationofsystemids
-is set to
-.IR 0 .
-The
-.B \-ORBactivehintinids
-option can be
-.IR 0 \ or \ 1 .
-This option defaults to
-.IR 1 .
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBpoamapsize \ poa_map_size
-\ \ Specify the size of the POA map. If not specified, the default value is 24.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBpersiententidpolicydemuxstrategy \ dynamic | linear
-\ \ Specify the demultiplexing lookup strategy to be used with the persistent
-ID policy. This option defaults to use the
-.I dynamic
-strategy.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBtransientidpolicydemuxstrategy \ dynamic | linear | active
-\ \ Specify the demultiplexing lookup strategy to be used with the transient ID
-policy. This option defaults to use the
-.I active
-strategy.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBactivehintinpoanames \ 0 | 1
-\ \ Specify whether an active hint should be added to POA names. With active
-hints, POA names can be found quickly. However, they lead to larger IORs. This
-option defaults to
-.IR 1 .
-.IP
-.BI \ -ORBthreadflags \ thread_flags
-\ \ Specify the flags used for thread creation. Flags can be any logical\-OR
-combination of
-.BR THR_DETACHED ,
-.BR THR_BOUND ,
-.B THR_NEW_LWP
-and
-.BR THR_SUSPENDED .
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBpoalock \ thread | null
-\ \ Specify the type of lock to be used for POA accesses.
-.I thread
-specifies that an inter\-thread mutex is used to guarantee exclusive
-access and
-.I null
-specifies that no locking be performed. The default is
-.IR thread .
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBcoltbllock \ thread | null
-\ \ Specify the type of lock to be used for the global collocation table.
-.I thread
-specifies that an inter\-thread mutex is used to guarantee exclusive access
-and
-.I null
-specifies that no locking be performed. The default is
-.IR thread .
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBconnectorlock \ thread | null
-\ \ Specify the type of lock to be used by the connector.
-.I thread
-specifies that an inter\-thread mutex is used to guarantee exclusive access
-and
-.I null
-specifies that no locking be performed. The default is
-.IR thread .
-.TP
-.B TAO_Default_Client_Strategy_Factory
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBiiopprofilelock \ thread | null
-\ \ Specify, whether to use a lock for accessing the IIOP Profile or not.
-Default is
-.IR thread ,
-which means that a lock is used. The second option is
-.IR null ,
-which means a
-.B null
-lock is used. This makes sense in case of optimizations and is allowed when no
-forwarding is used or only a single\-threaded client.
-.IP
-.BI \-ORBclientconnectionhandler \ MT | ST | RW
-.IP
-.I MT
-means use the multi\-threaded client connection handler which uses the leader
-follower model. This model allows the use of multiple threads with a single
-Reactor.
-.IP
-.I ST
-means use the single\-threaded client connection handler, i.e., the leader
-follower model will not be used. However,
-.I ST
-does support nested upcalls and handling of new requests while waiting for the
-reply from a server.
-.IP
-.I RW
-selects a strategy that simply blocks in
-.B recv()
-when waiting for a response from the server instead of waiting in the Reactor.
-The
-.I RW
-strategy only works when the application does not have to worry about new
-request showing up when waiting for a response. Therefore, this strategy is
-appropriate only for "pure" clients. Note that applications with nested upcalls
-are not "pure" clients. Also note that this strategy will only effect two way
-calls, since there is no waiting for one way calls. This strategy can also be
-used in an application that is both a client and a server if the server side is
-handled by a separate thread and the client threads are "pure" clients.
-.IP
-Default for this option is
-.IR MT .
