[omniORB] "Persistent" IORs

[Peter Craig]

On the server where you create your object, pass the static key to the
constructor:

    orb =3D CORBA::ORB_init(argc,argv,"omniORB2");
    boa =3D orb->BOA_init(argc,argv,"omniORB2_BOA");
 =20
    objectKeyVariant  key;

    key.modKey.hi =3D 2;
    STRNCPY(key.modKey.cstrKey, "XXXXXXXX", 8);

    COI::test_i *testObj =3D new COI::test_i(key.objKey);
    testObj->_obj_is_ready(boa);

On the client, use genRef (from the genIOR utility) to create the IOR:

    CORBA::Char * iorTest =3D genRef =
(CORBA::string_dup("IDL:test:1.0"),
		CORBA::string_dup("255.255.255.255"),    // <-- insert
your IP address here
		2000,=20
		CORBA::string_dup("0x020000005858585858585858"),
		1);

    CORBA::Object_var obj =3D orb->string_to_object((const char
*)iorTest);

    test_ptr testobj =3D test::_narrow(obj);

I passed the hex form of the key to genRef, you can also pass a
character string.
