Detailed Description

TAO_Stub.

Per-objref data includes the (protocol-specific) Profile, which is handled by placing it into a subclass of this type along with data that may be used in protocol-specific caching schemes. The type ID (the data specified by CORBA 2.0 that gets exposed "on the wire", and in stringified objrefs) is held by this module. The stub APIs are member functions of this type.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

TAO_Stub::TAO_Stub	(	const char *	repository_id,

CORBA::Boolean const TAO_Stub::collocation_opt_ [protected]

TRUE if we want to take advantage of collocation optimization in this ORB. This should be the same value as cached in the ORB_Core. The reason for caching this helps our generated code, notably the stubs to be decoubled from ORB_Core. Please do not move it away.

The ior info. This is needed for GIOP 1.2, as the clients could receive an exception from the server asking for this info. The exception that the client receives is LOC_NEEDS_ADDRESSING_MODE. The data is set up here to be passed on to Invocation classes when they receive an exception. This info is for the base profiles that this class stores

Definition at line 392 of file Stub.h.

CORBA::Boolean TAO_Stub::is_collocated_ [protected]

Flag that indicates that this stub is collocated (and that it belongs to an ORB for which collocation optimisation is active).

Definition at line 335 of file Stub.h.

TAO::Object_Proxy_Broker* TAO_Stub::object_proxy_broker_ [protected]

Pointer to the Proxy Broker.

This cached pointer instance takes care of routing the call for standard calls in CORBA::Object like _is_a (), _get_component () etc.

Definition at line 355 of file Stub.h.

CORBA::ORB_var TAO_Stub::orb_ [protected]

ORB required for reference counting. This will help us keep the ORB around until the CORBA::Object we represent dies.

Todo:

Why do we need both a reference to the ORB_Core and its ORB? It think the memory management rules for the ORB_Core changed, in the good old days it was the CORBA::ORB class who owned the ORB_Core, now it is the other way around....

Definition at line 331 of file Stub.h.

TAO_ORB_Core_Auto_Ptr TAO_Stub::orb_core_ [protected]

Automatically manage the ORB_Core reference count.

The ORB_Core cannot go away until the object references it creates are destroyed. There are multiple reasons for this, but in particular, the allocators used for some of the TAO_Profile objects contained on each TAO_Stub are owned by the TAO_ORB_Core.

This must be the first field of the class, otherwise the TAO_ORB_Core is destroyed too early!

Reference counter.

Definition at line 378 of file Stub.h.

CORBA::ORB_var TAO_Stub::servant_orb_ [protected]

If this stub refers to a collocated object then we need to hold on to the servant's ORB (which may be different from the client ORB) so that, 1. we know that the ORB will stay alive long enough, and, 2. we can search for the servant/POA's status starting from the ORB's RootPOA.
