ROFES: Real-Time CORBA for embedded systems

IDL Compiler Options

--c++-suffix

Specify the suffix of stub implementation. The default suffix is .cpp.

--hh-suffix

Specify the suffix of the stub header. The default suffix is .h.

--no-ami

Creates the stub without the AMI support.

--no-client

Creates only the server stub.

--no-server

Creates only the client stub.

--shared-lib

Specify that the stub will be used as shared library. This option is only needed for Windows.

ORB Initialization

-ORBDebugLevel

Specify the debug level. is a non-negative integer with greater values giving more debug output on stderr.

-ORBNamingIOR

Specify a stringified object reference to valid naming service. ROFES has not implemented an own naiming service, but ROFES can use the naming services from other CORBA implementations (like MICO or TAO).

-ORBGIOPVersion

Spefify the default version of GIOP protocol. Currently supported versions are 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2.

-ORBDefaultEndpoint

Tells the ORB to listen for requests on the interface specified by endpoint. The following interfaces are defined:

iiop
With this option the ORB uses the standard IIOP protocol.

sciiop
With this option the ORB uses the GIOP-based protocol for SCI.

caniop
With this option the ORB uses the EIOP-based protocol for CAN.

This is a server side option.

-ORBSSLkey

The key file holds your key pair.

-ORBSSLverify

If specified the peer must supply a valid certificate, otherwise the connection setup will fail. verify depth specifies how many hops of the chain of certification authorities should be checked. By default the validity of the peer's certificate is not checked.
