VisiBroker for C++ API Reference Guide : Error codes : IOP and IIOP interfaces and classes

IOP and IIOP interfaces and classes
This section describes the VisiBroker for C++ implementation of the key General Inter-ORB Protocol interfaces and other structures defined by the CORBA specification. For a complete description of these interfaces, refer to the OMG CORBA/IIOP Specification.
IIOP::ProfileBody
struct ProfileBody
This structure contains information about the protocol supported by an object.
module IIOP {
. . .
struct ProfileBody {
GIOP::Version iiop_version;
string host;
unsigned short port;
sequence<octet> object_key;
sequence<IOP::TaggedComponent> components;
};
};
Include file
The IOP_c.hh file should be included when you use this structure.
ProfileBody members
GIPOP::Version iiop_version
The version of IIOP supported.
CORBA::String_var host
The name of the host where the server hosting the object is running.
CORBA::UShort port
The port number to use for establishing a connection to the server hosting the object.
CORBA::OctetSequence object_key
Object keys are stored in a vendor-specific format and are generated when an IOR is created.
IIOP::MultiComponentProfile components
A sequence of TaggedComponents which contain information about the protocols that are supported.
IOP::IOR
struct IOR
This structure represents an Interoperable Object Reference and is used to provide important information about object references. Your client application can create a stringified IOR by invoking the ORB::object_to_string method.
Include file
The IOP_c.hh file should be included when you use this structure.
IOR members
CORBA::String_var type_id
This data member describes the type of object reference that is represented by this IOR.
TaggedProfileSeq profiles
This data member represents a sequence of one or more TaggedProfile structures which contain information about the protocols that are supported.
IOP::TaggedProfile
struct TaggedProfile
This structure represents a particular protocol that is supported by an Interoperable Object Reference (IOR).
Include file
The IOP_c.hh file should be included when you use this structure.
TaggedProfile members
ProfileID tag
The contents of the profile data. Its value should be one of the following:
CORBA_OctetSequence profile_data
This data member encapsulates all the protocol information needed to invoke an operation on an IOR.
