+ Content Overview +

The Orber documentation is divided into three sections: +

+ + +

PART ONE - The User's Guide +

+Description of the Orber Application including IDL-to-Erlang + language mapping, services and a small tutorial demonstrating + the development of a simple service.

+ + +

PART TWO - Release Notes +

+A concise history of Orber.

+ + +

PART THREE - The Reference Manual +

+ A quick reference guide, including a + brief description, to all the functions available in Orber.

+ + +
+ +
+ Brief Description of the User's Guide +

The User's Guide contains the following parts:

+ + +

ORB kernel and IIOP support

+ + +

Interface Repository

+ + +

IDL to Erlang mapping

+ + +

CosNaming Service

+ + +

Resolving initial reference from Java or C++

+ + +

Tutorial - creating a simple service

+ + +

CORBA Exceptions

+ + +

Interceptors

+ + +

OrberWeb

+ + +

Debugging +

+ + + +
+ ORB Kernel and IIOP Support +

The ORB kernel which has IIOP support will allow the creation + of persistent server objects in Erlang. These objects can also + be accessed via Erlang and Java environments. For the moment a + Java enabled ORB is needed to generate Java from IDL to use + Java server objects (this has been tested using OrbixWeb).

+
+ +
+ Interface Repository +

The IFR is an interface repository used for some type-checking + when coding/decoding IIOP. The IFR is capable of storing all + interfaces and declarations of OMG IDL.

+
+ +
+ IDL to Erlang Mapping +

The OMG IDL mapping for Erlang, which is necessary to access the + functionality of Orber, is described, The mapping structure is + included as the\011basic and the constructed OMG IDL types + references, invocations\011and Erlang characteristics. An example is + also provided.

+
+ +
+ CosNaming Service +

Orber contains a CosNaming compliant service.

+
+ +
+ Resolving Initial References from Java or C++ +

A couple of classes are added to Orber to simplify initial + reference access from Java or C++. +

+

Resolving initial reference from Java

+ A class with only one method which returns an Interoperable Object Referenceon the + external string format to the INIT object (see "Interoperable + Naming Service" specification).

+

Resolving initial reference from C++

+ + A class (and header file) with only one method which returns + an IOR on the external string format to the INIT object (see + "Interoperable Naming Service" specification).

+
+ +
+ Orber Stub/Skeleton +

An example which describes the API and behavior of Orber stubs and skeletons.

+
+ +
+ CORBA Exceptions +

A listing of all system exceptions supported by Orber and how one should + handle them. This chapter also describe how to generate user defined + exceptions.

+
+ +
+ Interceptors +

Descibes how to implement and activate interceptors.

+
+ +
+ OrberWeb +

Offers the possibility to administrate and supervise Orber via a GUI.

+
+ +
+ Debugging +

Describes how to use different tools when debugging and/or developing + new applications using Orber. Also includes a FAQ, which deal with + the most common mistakes when using Orber. +
