Detailed Description

Class to encapsulate CORBA client functionality in CARMA.

For examples see the Test directory.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

carma::corba::Client::Client	(	int	argc,
		char *	argv[],
		int	rrtt = 60
	)

Initialize CORBA client runtime.

Parameters

argc	Command line arguments to initialize ORB from.
argv	Command line arguments to initialized ORB from.
rrtt	Relative round-trip timeout for commands in seconds.

Destructor Note: doesn't cleanup remote resources allocated with this class.

This is NOT a shortcoming of this class, but a fundamental limitation of the ownership concept in distributed environments in general.

Member Function Documentation

static void carma::corba::Client::applyTimeoutPolicies ( CORBA::ORB_ptr  orb, int  rrtt = 60  )

static

Apply client timeout policies.

This is only exposed here so that we apply the same timeout policies to util::CorbaUtils and util::Orb (both call this).

Parameters

rrtt	Relative round-trip timeout for commands.

template<typename T >

T::_var_type carma::corba::Client::resolveName	(	const ::std::string &	name,
		bool	initialRef = false
	)

Resolve specified name to a CORBA object of the templatized output type.

Nameserver names have the format "context.name" where a context contains multiple contexts and/or objects.

Parameters

name	Hierarchical nameserver name OR initial service name.
initialRef	True if name is an initial service name.

Returns

Templatized CORBA var type from generated proxy class.

template<typename N >

bool carma::corba::Client::sendNotification	(	const ::std::string &	channelName,
		const ::std::string &	proxyName,
		const N &	notification
	)

Send a notification of type N to specified notification server channel.

Parameters

channelName	Name of notification channel.
proxyName	Name of notification proxy connection.
notification	IDL defined structure of notification.
