CORBA-ORBit - Changes

Wed Oct 25 03:51:29 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

Wed Oct 25 03:46:54 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

server.c (call_implementation): Account for the fact that giop_send_reply_buffer_use() may return NULL if the connection to the client has already been closed.
ORBit/mapping.pod: Fix to be a proper manpage, if worse HTML.

Wed Oct 25 03:23:29 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

README MANIFEST ORBit/mapping.pod: Check in the mapping.pod document originally from CORBA::MICO with ORBit revisions from my web site.
ORBit.xs (CORBA): Apply patch from Paolo Molaro to fix memory leak of argv strings recognized by ORBit.

Tue Jul 11 14:38:24 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

demarshal.c (get_sequence): Fix problem with the length of sequences of octets and chars. (Bug found by Guillaume Schmid.)

Sat Jul 8 15:04:22 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

ORBit.pm README: Up version to 0.4.2
idl.c (tree_post_func, do_type_dcl): Register typecodes for all named types, not just named types that happen to be referenced elsewhere.
idl.c (porbit_parse_idl_file): Remvoing -D__ORBIT_IDL__ since with it, the GNOME IDL files break badly by using #pragma inhibit push to avoid compiling bits that are predefined in C libraries.
idl.c (porbit_parse_idl_file): Enable codefrag syntax, since GNORBA uses it.
interfaces.c (load_ancestor): call ensure_iface_repository, before trying to access iface repository. Also, try to produce a bit more graceful warnings and death when things aren't found.

Sun Apr 16 14:58:20 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

ORBit.xs (CORBA): Copy strings from argv array when passing to ORBit for initialization. (The code to recreate the array afterwords was reading uninitalized memory.)

Thu Apr 13 11:52:24 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

Thu Apr 13 11:48:24 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

README (CORBA): Updated test output to correspond to current client/server pair.

Sat Mar 25 14:47:54 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

Fri Mar 24 12:41:54 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

errors.c (porbit_system_except): Deal with the fact that ORBit uses IDL:CORBA in its system exception names instead of IDL:omg.org/CORBA.
demarshal.c (porbit_get_exception): Hack around incorrect marshalling of system exceptions by ORBit.
marshal.c (put_objref): Check outgoing object references against the typecode. There are some problems here if the object we are marshalling is not a local object and we don't have compete type information. Perhaps this check should only be for local object references?
server.c: Add more detailed information in warning messages about the location where errors occur.

Wed Mar 22 15:44:51 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

Released 0.3.9
ORBit.pm: Temporarily disable dereferencing ORB, POA, POAManager, since ORBit is broken when doing so.
server client: Add test for creating and destroying servants on the fly.
ORBit.xs server.[ch]: Remove pin table, which was no longer used for useful purposes. (We were already storing the information in the servant.) Implicitely reference active servants so it isn't necessary for for applications to keep references to such servants themselves.

Tue Mar 14 11:16:35 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

idl.c (porbit_parse_idl_file): Define __ORBIT_IDL__ when parsing, to allow people to #define around libIDL pecularities in IDL files. (Michael Meeks)
idl.c (do_operation): Advance properly to the next exception when iterating over exceptions. (Pointed out by Jason Tackaberry.)

Sun Jan 2 19:52:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

Released 0.3.0
Account.idl: Fix stupid left-in debugging change.
README (CORBA): Up version number. Add more information about ORBit dependencies.

Tue Jan 4 03:19:59 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

demarshal.c (porbit_get_exception): Fix bug in demarshalling system exceptions.
server.c (porbit_call_method): Fix leak of stack space for operations returning void.
server.c (call_implementation): Add a SAVETMPS/FREETMPS around method calls, otherwise we leak like a sieve. (Could also avoid mortalizing outside of our method calls, I think.)
ORBit.pm (import): Handle absolute pathnames correctly.

Tue Dec 7 13:56:33 1999 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

idl.c (porbit_parse_idl_file): Add the IDLF_TYPECODES flag so that typecodes are understood. (From Michael Meeks <mmeeks@gnu.org>)

Fri Oct 8 01:08:26 1999 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

Mon Sep 27 23:31:41 1999 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

Tue Sep 21 22:53:40 1999 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

idl.c: Add names into struct/enum/except/etc. typecodes because the marshalling code in ORBit expects them (spec says that "" would be valid, so we could use that, but NULL segfaults).
marshal.c demarshal.c ORBit.pm:Add support for Anys.
ORBit.xs interfaces.c: Provide an interface for creating TypeCodes.
client.c: Split stubs into a separate file.
interfaces.c server.c: Add support for oneway operations.
