Detailed Description

Generic Connector interface definitions.

Base class for connector bridge object.

@TODO: Need to rename the class as TAO_Transport_Connector.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

TAO_Connector::TAO_Connector (  CORBA::ULong    tag )

default constructor.

TAO_Connector::~TAO_Connector (  void    )  [virtual]

the destructor.

Member Function Documentation

virtual int TAO_Connector::check_prefix (  const char *    endpoint )  [pure virtual]

Check that the prefix of the provided endpoint is valid for use with a given pluggable protocol. Reimplemented in TAO_IIOP_Connector.

virtual int TAO_Connector::close (  void    )  [pure virtual]

Shutdown Connector bridge and concrete Connector. Reimplemented in TAO_IIOP_Connector.

int TAO_Connector::connect (  TAO_GIOP_Invocation *    invocation, TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface *desc    ACE_ENV_ARG_DECL_NOT_USED )  [virtual]

To support pluggable we need to abstract away the details of the connect () method so it can be called from the invocation code independent of the actual transport protocol in use.

int TAO_Connector::create_connect_strategy (  void    )  [protected]

Create a connect strategy.

virtual TAO_Profile* TAO_Connector::create_profile (  TAO_InputCDR &    cdr )  [pure virtual]

Create a profile for this protocol and initialize it based on the encapsulation in <cdr>. Reimplemented in TAO_IIOP_Connector.

virtual int TAO_Connector::make_connection (  TAO_GIOP_Invocation *    invocation, TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface *    desc )  [protected, pure virtual]

Do an actual connect using the underlying transport to make a connection. Reimplemented in TAO_IIOP_Connector.

int TAO_Connector::make_mprofile (  const char *    string, TAO_MProfile &mprofile    ACE_ENV_ARG_DECL )

Parse a string containing a URL style IOR and return an MProfile.

virtual TAO_Profile* TAO_Connector::make_profile (  ACE_ENV_SINGLE_ARG_DECL    )  [protected, pure virtual]

Create a profile with a given endpoint. Reimplemented in TAO_IIOP_Connector.

virtual char TAO_Connector::object_key_delimiter (  void    )  const [pure virtual]

Return the object key delimiter to use or expect. Reimplemented in TAO_IIOP_Connector.

virtual int TAO_Connector::open (  TAO_ORB_Core *    orb_core )  [pure virtual]

Initialize object and register with reactor. Reimplemented in TAO_IIOP_Connector.

ACE_INLINE TAO_ORB_Core * TAO_Connector::orb_core (  void    )  [protected]

Return the TAO_ORB_Core pointer.

ACE_INLINE void TAO_Connector::orb_core (  TAO_ORB_Core *    orb_core )  [protected]

Set the ORB Core pointer.

virtual int TAO_Connector::set_validate_endpoint (  TAO_Endpoint *    endpoint )  [protected, pure virtual]

Set and validate endpoint. We need to do this to initialize our remote *_Addr's which have not been done during IOR decode. Reimplemented in TAO_IIOP_Connector.

ACE_INLINE CORBA::ULong TAO_Connector::tag (  void    )  const

The tag identifying the specific ORB transport layer protocol. For example IOP::TAG_INTERNET_IOP == 0. The tag is used in the IOR to identify the type of profile included. IOR -> {{tag0, profile0} {tag1, profile1} ...}. The IOP module defines the ProfileId typedef to be a CORBA::ULong.

TAO_Connect_Strategy* TAO_Connector::active_connect_strategy_ [protected]

The (a)synch connect strategy.

TAO_ORB_Core* TAO_Connector::orb_core_ [private]

Pointer to our ORB core.

CORBA::ULong TAO_Connector::tag_ [private]

IOP protocol tag.
