/etc/init.d/omniorb

2002-12-10 Thread Pigeon
Hi,

Just idly wondering: /etc/init.d/omniorb: what is it for? It was put
in by default when I originally installed the system, and I soon
disabled it, and haven't noticed anything complaining that it's not
there.

It runs omniNames. What is omniNames? man omniNames gives the following:

   omniNames - OMNI Naming Service
   
   The  OMNI  Naming Service is an omniORB2 implementation of
   the OMG's COS Naming Service Specification.

which leaves me none the wiser.

Pigeon

I've never used it(as far as I know..) but apt-cache says

Description: CORBA ORB (omniORB) - c++ implementation
 omniORB is a freely available Common Object Request Broker
 Architecture (CORBA) 2.3 compliant object request broker (ORB)
 implementation. It is based on the IIOP communications
 protocol and should be interoperable with any other
 CORBA 2.3 compliant ORB.

you can always remove it, apt-get remove omniorb, if something else
needs it, the system will prompt to remove that as well, if its something
you need you can keep it, I've never had it on my systems though as far
as I can remember.

CORBA.

OmniORB was originally written by the fine folks at ATT is now at
sourceforge:

http://omniorb.sourceforge.net/

OmniORB is a well-respected ORB (Object Request Broker) and OmniNames
is the ORB's nameserver (similar to DNS except for objects).

Most likely, some application you installed is dependent upon OmniORB
and so it was installed as well. It is of note that GNOME uses ORBit
for its ORB.

omniORB thread

1998-01-25 Thread Obi

Hi all,

after having unsuccesfully tried to install omniORB, since the problem was in
the NameService, I tried to get a CORBA client anyway (I don't need to use the
NameService anyway).

Well I can compile, but I get segmentation fault when I try to run it. Using
gdb I found that the problem is in the libraries during a call to lock a
thread semaphore. Can someone tell me if the thread are usable by now? 

I have hamm system, libc6 etc ... but a custom kernel 2.0.33. Can this be the
problem? Also i change manually the links from /usr/include/{linux,ams} to
point to the kernel source tree ... 

thanks for any help/feedback,
graziano

omniorb

1998-01-22 Thread Obi

Hi all,

first of all I'd like to thank all of you that answered to my post about the
bug-tracking package. I'm still looking at them ...

Now I have problem with the omniorb package: the NameServer (omniNames) segs
fault as soon as I start it. The package doesn't even install completely (the
postinst starts omniNames ...). I have an hamm system. AM I missing something?
I was thinking that the problem could be the threads, but libc6 already has
them ...

thanks,
graziano
