-This file describes how to run the TAO Concurrency Service and its
-accompanying tests. In addition, it describes the locations of the
-files that make up the service and tests. For a general description
-of the directory structure for the services please consult
-
- $TAO_ROOT/docs/orbsvcs.html
-
-----------------------------------------
-
-HOW TO RUN THE SERVICE
-
-The Concurrency Service server runs in a thread-per-connection
-concurrency model, which is specified by the svc.conf file. This
-model is necessary to enable the server to block in a dedicated
-thread, i.e., one for each client. The concurrency service will not
-run in the reactive model.
-
-The server itself is located in the
-
-$TAO_ROOT/orbsvcs/Concurrency_Service
-
-directory.
-
-The server accepts the folowing options:
-
- usage: ./Concurrency_Service [-d] [-o] <ior_output_file>
- [-d] is the debug option
- [-o] <ior_output_file> outputs the IOR of the lock set factory
- to the file
- [-s] Prevents the concurency server from using the naming server
-
-The lock set factory is registered in the naming service in the
-CosConcurrency context with the name "LockSetFactory".
-
-----------------------------------------
-
-THE IMPLEMENTATION
-
-The implementation of the concurrency service objects is located in
-the $TAO_ROOT/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Concurrency directory and consists of
-the following files:
-
- CC_LockSet.{h,cpp} Implementation of the lock set. At present
- there is only one implementation of the lock set which
- implements multiple possesion semantics for both
- transactional (which is not otherwise supported) and
- non-transactional clients. Please see the comments in
- the CC_LockSet.h file for further details.
-
- CC_LockSetFactory.{h,cpp} Iplementation of the lock set
- factory
-
- Concurrency_Utils.{h,cpp} Wrapper around the concurrency
- server.
-
-The current implementation does not support transactions. If you'd
-like to add support for transactions to TAO please let us know.
-
-----------------------------------------
-
-THE TESTS
-
-The tests are located in the $TAO_ROOT/orbsvcs/tests/Concurrency
-directory. There are two types of tests:
-
- . A simple test -- which tests that it is possible to create
- locks and lock them in all the different lock modes
-
- . A more extended test which requires two (or more)
- processes.
-
-The client accepts the following options:
-
- usage: ./CC_client [-b] [-d]
- [-c] <stdin|testscriptname>
- [-e] <test;arg1;arg2>
- [-f cc_factory-obj-ref-key-file]
- [-k cc-obj-ref-key] [-x] [-s]
-
- . The [-b] option runs the basic tests.
- . The [-c] option runs a test script against the concurrency
- service server. This option is described in more detail in
- the $TAO_ROOT/orbsvcs/tests/Concurrency/README file. It is
- the intent that this type of testing will be used instead of
- the [-b] and [-e] tests. These tests are retained for
- backwards compatibility.
- . The [-d] option is the debug option.
- . The [-e] option is for running one of the extended tests. The
- format of the argument to the -e option is <test;arg1;arg2>
- where test is the name of the test (at present test =
- {1,2,3}) and arg1 and arg2 are arguments to the test. See
- the example below.
-
- . The [-f] option reads the factory IOR from a file. This is
- currently not supported.
-
- . The [-k] option takes the factory IOR as argument on the
- commandline. This is currently not supported.
-
- . The [-x] option tells the server to shut down
- gracefully. Currently this has no effect.
-
- . The [-s] option tells the test not to use the naming
- service. This is currently not supported.
-
-----------------------------------------
-
-EXAMPLE TEST RUN
-
- Window-1> ./Concurrency_Service -d
- Window-2> ./CC_client -b
- Window-2> ./CC_client -e '1;Name'
- Window-2> ./CC_client -e '2;Name'
- Window-3> ./CC_client -e '3;Name'
-
-NOTE: It seems that there is a problem using the naming service the
- first time the client is run. This error does not appear if the
- environment variable 'NameService' is set to the IOR of the naming
- service (the IOR of the naming service is printed when the
- Concurrency_Control server is started).
