CORBA 2.6.1 Administration Guide

the NonStop CORBA 2.6.1 Programmer’s Guide for C++. For Java programmers, it provides IDL to Java mapping. (Reference
information for Java interfaces and classes is provided in Javadoc format on the product CD.)
The NonStop CORBA 2.6.1 Glossary provides definitions of CORBA terminology, with special emphasis on the NonStop CORBA
implementation.
In addition, the NonStop Distributed Component Console includes online help.

Description
Bold text Bold text in a paragraph indicates a technical term that is defined within the text and also, in some cases, in the
NonStop CORBA 2.6.1 Glossary.
UPPERCASE
LETTERS
Uppercase letters indicate keywords and reserved words; enter these items exactly as shown. Items not enclosed
in brackets are required. For example:
MAXATTACH
Italic letters Items in Italicletters indicate variable items that you supply. Items not enclosed in brackets are required. In the
following example,
UserDir is a variable directory name, while /projectX must be entered exactly as shown:
UserDir/projectX
[ ] Brackets enclose optional syntax items. For example:
TERM [\system-name.]$terminal-name
INT[ERRUPTS]
A group of items enclosed in brackets is a list from which you can choose one item or none. The items in the list
may be arranged either vertically, with aligned brackets on each side of the list, or horizontally, enclosed in a pair
of brackets and separated by vertical lines. For example:
LIGHTS [ ON ]
[ OFF ]
[ SMOOTH [ num ] ]
K [ X | D ] address-1
{ } A group of items enclosed in braces is a list from which you are required to choose one item. The items in the list
may be arranged either vertically, with aligned braces on each side of the list, or horizontally, enclosed in a pair of
braces and separated by vertical lines. For example:
LISTOPENS PROCESS { $appl-mgr-name }
{ $process-name }
ALLOWSU { ON | OFF }
| A vertical line separates alternatives in a horizontal list that is enclosed in brackets or braces. For example:
INSPECT { OFF | ON | SAVEABEND }
... An ellipsis immediately following a pair of brackets or braces indicates that you can repeat the enclosed sequence
of syntax items any number of times. For example:
M address-1 [ , new-value ]...
[ - ] {0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9}...
An ellipsis immediately following a single syntax item indicates that you can repeat that syntax item any number of
times. For example:
"s-char..."
- A dash in a command usually indicates a separate flag.
" " When quotation marks surround a defined syntax symbol (such as a bracket or brace), they symbolize an actual
character that must be entered as shown. For example:
"[" repetition-constant-list "]"
Other
punctuation
Punctuation not previously described (such as parentheses, commas, and semicolons) must be entered as shown.
For example:
error := NEXTFILENAME ( file-name ) ;
LISTOPENS SU $process-name.#su-name
Long
Commands
If the syntax of a command is too long to be shown on a single line, each continuation line is indented three
spaces, the first of which is separated from the preceding line by a blank line. This spacing distinguishes items in a
continuation line from items in a vertical list of selections. For example:
ALTER [ / OUT file-spec / ] CONTROLLER
[ , attribute-spec ]...
