CORBA::omniORB - Perl module implementing CORBA 2.x via omniORB

  use CORBA:::omniORB ids => [ 'IDL:Account/Account:1.0' => undef,
                               'IDL:Account/Counter:1.0' => undef ];

The omniORB module is a Perl interface to the omniORB ORB. It is meant, in the spirit of omniORB, to be a clean, simple, system, at the expense of speed, if necessary.

Arguments in the form of key value pairs can be given after the 'use CORBA::omniORB' statement.

ids

The value of the argument is a array reference which contains pairs of the form:

    REPOID => FALLBACK_IDL_FILE

REPOID is the repository id of an interface to pre-load. FALLBACK_IDL_FILE is the name of an IDL file to load the interface from if it is not found in the interface repository. This capability is not yet implemented.

See the description in CORBA::omniORB::mapping.

ORB_init ID

is_nil OBJ

new ( TYPE, VALUE )

Constructs a new any from TYPE (of class CORBA::TypeCode) and VALUE.

type

Returns the type of the any, as a CORBA::TypeCode.

value

Returns the value of the any.

object_to_string ( OBJ )

list_initial_services

resolve_initial_references ( ID )

string_to_object ( STRING )

cdr_encode ( VAL, TC )

cdr_decode ( CDR, TC)

preload ( REPOID )

Force the interface specified by REPOID to be loaded from the Interface Repository. Returns a true value if REPOID represents interface (dk_Interface), false otherwise.

new ( REPOID )

Create a new typecode object for the type with the repository id REPOID. Support for the basic types is provided by the pseudo-repository IDs 'IDL:CORBA/XXX:1.0', where XXX is one of Short, Long, UShort, ULong, UShort, ULong, Float, Double, Boolean, Char, Octet, Any, TypeCode, Principal, Object or String. Note that the capitalization here agrees with the C++ names for the types, not with that found in the typecode constant.

In the future, this scheme will probably be revised, or replaced.
