Repository files navigation

The corba repository contains a set of Erlang applications, that implements a CORBA compliant Object Request Broker (ORB) and a number of Object Management Group (OMG) standard services.

Applications

The following applications are a part of the corba package.

  • Orber - the Object Request Broker and the naming service (CosNaming)
  • Ic - IDL compiler
  • CosEvent - event service
  • CosEventDomain - event domain service (management of clusters of information channels)
  • CosNotification - notification service
  • CosTime - time service
  • CosTransaction - transaction service
  • CosProperty - property service
  • CosFileTransfer - file transfer service

Build

Prerequisites

In order to build the corba applications, a built OTP source tree of at least version 23 is needed.

export ERL_TOP=<OTP source path>

git clone https://github.com/erlang/otp.git
cd otp
# The autoconf step is not necessary after OTP 24.0.1 and OTP 23.3.4.1
./otp_build autoconf
./otp_build configure
make

Ensure that correct OTP is available in the PATH.

In order to cross compile corba the OTP source tree should be configured for the cross compilation. For more info on cross compilation of Erlang/OTP see the document Cross Compiling Erlang/OTP.

Compiling the source

The environment variable ERL_TOP need to be set to the OTP source path and then it's possible to compile corba from the source with the following commands.

export ERL_TOP=<OTP source path>

git clone https://github.com/erlang/corba.git
cd corba
make

To release the applications set the RELEASE_ROOT to a directory of choice and the run the following command.

make release RELEASE_ROOT=<install path>

And you will get the following structure there so for exmaple the environment variable ERL_LIBScan be used to get the application into the code path (export ERL_LIBS=<my corba release path>/lib).

lib/
    orber-<vsn>/
    cosEvent-<vsn>/
    cosEventDomain-<vsn>/
     :
     :
     :

You can also install the corba applications directly into an existing OTP installation either by using the release target or the install target. When using the install target the corba installation will use the same installation directory as configured in the OTP source tree.

The documentation build

The documentation is built with the following commands.

cd corba
make docs

To release it, set the RELEASE_ROOT to a directory of choice and the run the following commands.

make release_docs RELEASE_ROOT=<install path>

This gives the following structure on the release path, where the top index is doc/index.html.

COPYRIGHT
doc/
lib/
    orber-<vsn>/
    cosEvent-<vsn>/
    cosEventDomain-<vsn>/
     :
     :
     :
README.md

If you want to install the CORBA documentation to be a part of the OTP documentation installation. Install the corba applications docs into the OTP documentation installation directory either by using the release_docs target or the install-docs target. When using the install-docs target the corba installation will use the same installation directory as configured in the OTP source tree. Then you build the OTP documentation and install it into the same directory, the top index will then include the corba documentation.

Versions and tags

There is only one version for all applications included in the corba repository. This means that if one uses the tag 4.5 then all the included applications have that version, e.g. orber-4.5, cosEvent-4.5 etc.
