-Quoter example
--------------
-
-
-Context: The Quoter example serves several tests, the first is the test
- of several multithreading policies and the second is showing the
- use of the Life Cycle Service as it is defined in the
- CORBA Common Object Services specification.
-
-Life Cycle Service use-case:
-
-several processes exist: server,
- Factory_Finder,
- Generic_Factory,
- Life_Cycle_Service
- client
-
-several object exist: Quoter,
- Quoter_Factory,
- Quoter_Factory_Finder,
- Quoter_Generic_Factory,
- Quoter_Life_Cycle_Service
-
-server: The server process contains two kind of objects: Quoter and
- Quoter_Factory's. A Quoter is a very simple Object supporting
- only one method. The focus is not on a sophisticated object
- but on showing how policies work.
- The object Quoter_Factory serves as a factory for Quoters.
-
-Factory_Finder: The COS spec. introduces the concept of a Factory Finder
- which is capable to find proper factories. The Naming
- Service is used as lookup-mechanism. A reference to
- the Factory_Finder is passed as parameter of any copy
- or move request.
-
-Generic_Factory: This process supports the object Quoter_Generic_Factory (QGF).
- The QGF supports the GenericFactory interface introduced by
- the COS specification. It forwards create_object requests to
- more concrete factories, e.g. the Quoter_Factory. The
- concrete factories are found via the Naming Service.
-
-Life_Cycle_Service: This process is very similar to the Generic_Factory
- proocess. It also supports an Object, which conforms to
- the GenericFactory interface. The Quoter_Life_Cycle_Service
- conforms to the idea of a life cycle service as it is
- introduced by the COS specification. The Quoter_Life_Cycle_Service
- is neutral against the Quoter example. It is not dependent
- on it. Only interfaces defined by the CosLifeCycle.idl file
- are used. The implemenation uses the COS Trading Service
- manage registered Generic Factories, as the Quoter_Generic_Factory
- for example. A lookup on the Trading Service is performed
- when a create_object request is invoked on it.
-
-client: Creates one Quoter through using the Quoter_Factory_Finder. After that
- the copy method of Quoter is invoked to copy the Quoter to an other
- location, which is in this example the same location, but that does
- not matter so much. The concept is important in this example.
-
- The objects are invoked in the following order:
- client->Quoter->Quoter_Factory_Finder->Quoter_Life_Cycle_Service
- ->Quoter_Generic_Factory->Quoter_Factory
-
-
-
-!!!!Note:
-To make use of the move operation you need to use the -sm switch on
-the perl script. This activates in the server multiple objects, which is needed for
-moving. \ No newline at end of file
