[omniORB] start process on demand

[GAO,YAN (HP-Singapore,ex3)]

Hi Duncan,

Thanks very much for your reply. I read your mail and also the user's guide
but I am still confused about the corbaloc. I am sure I understand the
concept. But I am perplexed by the way to construct the corbaloc. Can you
give me a example program like the eg3_impl.cc which use the omniNames. 

By the way if I use corbaloc or corbaName, I do not need to start the name
service, is that right.


Best Regards,

Gao Yan

No, omniORB has no built-in way to do that. You have to write it yourself.

For simple boot-strapping, you can use the corbaloc URI scheme. In
most cases, most of the object references you use will be returned
from method invocations on other objects.

Cheers,

Duncan.
