Detailed Description

Maintaining accesses Name Server Databases. Allows to add NameBindings, change them, remove them and resolve NameBindings.

Manages a Naming Service . That represents a persistent string to string mapping for different scopes. The scope of a ACE_Naming_Context may be either local for the calling process (Note : A process is hereby not identified by it's pid, but by it's argv[0]. So different processes (in UNIX syntax) may access the same NameBindings), global for all processes running on one host or global for all processes on the net (that know the address of the net name server socket). Strings may be plain character strings or Wide character strings. A Name Binding consists of a name string (that's the key), a value string and an optional type string (no wide chars).


Member Enumeration Documentation

enum ACE_Naming_Context::Context_Scope_Type
 

Enumeration values:
PROC_LOCAL  Name lookup is local to the process.
NODE_LOCAL  Name lookup is local to the node (host).
NET_LOCAL  Name lookup is local to the (sub)network.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ACE_Naming_Context::ACE_Naming_Context void   ) 
 

"Do-nothing" constructor.

ACE_Naming_Context::ACE_Naming_Context Context_Scope_Type  scope_in,
int  light = 0
 

Specifies the scope of this namespace, opens and memory-maps the associated file (if accessible) or contacts the dedicated name server process for NET_LOCAL namespace. Note that light specifies whether or not we want to use ACE_Lite_MMap_Memory_Pool. By default we use ACE_MMap_Memory_Pool.

ACE_Naming_Context::~ACE_Naming_Context void   ) 
 

destructor, do some cleanup :TBD: last dtor should "compress" file
