Chapter 3 example.
______________________________________________________________________________
This example been taken from the book "Advanced CORBA Programming with C++"
by Michi Henning and Steve Vinoski. 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.
