+ Orber 3.6.14 + +
+ Improvements and New Features + + +

+ The documentation is now built with open source tools (xsltproc and fop) + that exists on most platforms. One visible change is that the frames are removed.

+ Orber 3.6.12 + +
+ Improvements and New Features + + +

Only the source instance of InitialReference.java is now + included. Users are adviced to use the Interoperable + Naming Service (INS) instead. INS is a part of the OMG + standard specification.

+
+ +
+ Orber 3.6.8 + +
+ Improvements and New Features + + +

When a local port range has been defined (i.e. iiop_out_ports), + Orber set the socket option reuseaddr to true and after one + timed out connection attempt no other port in the given range + is used for that particular connect attempt.

+

+ + +

Possible to override global SSL parameters when using + local interfaces.

+

Own Id: OTP-6869 Aux Id: seq10742

+ + +
+
+ Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

The parameter ssl_client_ciphers was used on the server side as well + instead of ssl_server_ciphers.

+

Own Id: OTP-6868 Aux Id:

+ + +

The configuration parameter iiop_max_in_requests was ignored, until + the first incoming request arrived, if iiop_packet_size was set.

+ Orber 3.6.7 + +

+ Orber 3.6.6 + +
+ Improvements and New Features + + +

It is now possible to configure incoming connections which + overrides some global configuration parameters. See + orber:add_listen_interface/2/3.

+

Own Id: OTP-6696 Aux Id:

+
+ +
+ Orber 3.6.5 + +

Removed some unused code.

+

Own Id: OTP-6527 Aux Id:

+ + +
+
+ +
+ Orber 3.6.4 + +
+ Improvements and New Features + + +

Orber can now be configured so that different NAT parameters + can be specified for different interfaces.

+

Own Id: OTP-6165 Aux Id:

+ + +

It is now possible to set the keepalive option for incoming + and outgoing IIOP connections. For more information, see the + Configuration chapter in the User's Guide.

+

Own Id: OTP-6370 Aux Id: seq10532

+ + +

The new function orber:close_connection/1/2 allows a client + to close connections to an object residing on a remote ORB.

+

Own Id: OTP-6371 Aux Id: seq10532

+ + +

Orber now use the SSL two-phase accept strategy to avoid + that new incoming connections via SSL are not blocked + by a previous connect attempt that never initiated the + SSL handshake. Note, the configuration parameter + iiop_ssl_accept_timeout should be set (default infinity). + For more information, see the Configuration chapter in the + User's Guide. If Orber is started in secure mode, the + installed SSL version must support ssl:ssl_accept/1/2 and + ssl:transport_accept/1/2.

+

Own Id: OTP-6372 Aux Id: seq10105

+ + +
+ +
+ Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

The operation orber_ifr:contents/2 could only handle dk_All.

+

+ +
+ Orber 3.6.3 + +
+ Improvements and New Features + + +

When installing Orber it is now possible to set the priority + for Orber internal Mnesia tables. For more information, see the + Reference Manual regarding orber:install/2.

+

Own Id: OTP-5907 Aux Id: seq10156

+ + +

The operation corba_object:is_a/2/3 now only connect to a remote + ORB if necessary (i.e. the target object inherits from objects + associated with the given IFR id).

+

Own Id: OTP-5908

+ + +
+ +
+ Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

The operation corba_object:is_remote/1 always returned + true, which was introduced in orber-3.2.10.

+

Own Id: OTP-5909

+ + +
+
+ +
+ Orber 3.6.2 + +
+ Improvements and New Features + + +

Native interceptors may now export new_in_connection and + new_out_connection operations with arity 5. If this is the + case, information about the local interface and port is + passed to the interceptor. Orber's built in interceptors + have been changed to include this information as well.

+

Own Id: OTP-5671

+ + +
+ +
+ Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

In some cases, e.g. incorrect GIOP headers or a CancelRequest + containing a non-existing RequestId, the incoming connection + would be terminated.

+

Own Id: OTP-5672 Aux Id: seq10037

+ + +

If combining the 'Use Current Interface in IOR' and + 'Use IPv6' flags, exported IOR:s contained an incorrect + host address.

+

Own Id: OTP-5673

+ + +
+
+ +
+ Orber 3.6.1 + +
+ Improvements and New Features + + +

Reduced overhead when using outgoing ACL with a local interface + defined.

+

Own Id: OTP-5659

+ + +

Added guards to ensure that, when so required, a list + of IOP_ServiceContext's is passed instead of, for example, + just the context record.

+

Own Id: OTP-5660

+ + +
+ +
+ Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

The documentation referred to two different context definitions, + the incorrect ServiceContext and the correct IOP_ServiceContext. + The hrl file PATH/include/corba.hrl also contained the incorrect + record definition. This has now been updated so that only + IOP_ServiceContext is used and referred to.

+

Own Id: OTP-5658

+ + +
+
+ +
+ Orber 3.6 + +
+ Improvements and New Features + + +

It is now possible to define a Access Control List (ACL), + which limits the host and ports Orber may connect to or + accept connections from.

+

Own Id: OTP-5567

+ + +

It is now possible to add, and remove, listen interfaces. + For more information, consult the User's Guide and the + orber module Reference Manual.

+

Own Id: OTP-5568

+ + +

It is now possible to activate and deactivate Audit/Trail + logging. One of the three built in interceptors will be used + depending on the requested verbosity.

+

Own Id: OTP-5569

+ + +

It is now possible to configure Orber to add the interface, + to exported local IOR:s, a Request came via.

+

Own Id: OTP-5570

+ + +

It is now possible to instruct Orber which local interface an outgoing Request + shall be sent via. To accomplish this the Orber generic context must be + added added to each invocation.

+

Own Id: OTP-5571

+ + +

It is now possible to define a default local interface, + which Orber will use when connecting to another ORB.
