This is a simple CORBA example that makes a grid of user defined size.
The grid can be imagined as a matrix with cells that can hold values.

This example  creates a simple grid server with user defined sizes.
If the user does not define the size a default grid is created.  The user
can give a value to be held in the grid. 


server:
-------

server [-d] [-o <ior_output_file>] [-n]

Options:
-------
-d    Debug flag (It is additive more -d flags will give debugging).
-o    Outputs the ior to the file
      The ior is the reference using which the client can interact with
      the target server object.
-n    Use the naming service

When the server is started, you should see as the first line of output
something that looks like

	iiop:1.0//danzon.cs.wustl.edu:10015/P35ad159600081a38/child_poa/server
	(-ORBobjrefstyle url)
or
	IOR:000000000000001649444c3a43756269745...
	(-ORBobjrefstyle ior)

Using -d turns on debugging messages.  This option is additive, i.e.,
the more -d options provided, the more debugging you can get.  At the
moment, only 2 levels of debugging are implemented, and more than 2 -d
options are ignored.

client:
-------

client [-d] [-x] [-f <Server_ior_file>] [-n iterations] [-k ior] [-n] [-p] 
       [-q] [-w] [-h] [-v]

Options:
-------
-d    Debug flag
-x    Tells the server to shutdown at the end of the test.
-f    Reads the server ior from the file
-n    no. of iterations
-k    IOR
-n    Use the naming service

-p    A horizontal position of the grid where the value [v] is stored
-q    A vertical  position of the grid where the value [v] is stored
-w    Width of the grid
-h    Height of the grid
-v    Value that needs to be stored in the grid.

The last four options ie. p,q,w,h,v have default values. So, if the client 
is invoked without these options then default values of one or all are 
taken.

You can either cut and paste the IOR from the server to the client
(with the -k option), have the client read the IOR from a file using
the -f option (this file is produced using the -o option of the
server), or use the naming service (with the -s option).

run_test.pl:
------------

This perl script runs the server and client and shuts down the server
when it is done.
