2. Unzip the following documentation zip files in the same directory
that they live in:
(a) <jorblite-dir>\docs\javapubs\javadocs\javadoc.zip
You can use an application like "WinZip" to do this.
3. You will need to obtain a "C" preprocessor, such as "cl" from
Microsoft's Visual C++ (needed by IDL compiler). You will also
need to ensure that the "cl.exe" program is accessible from the
PATH environment variable. The idl2java script executes IDL using
the "cl.exe" program to preprocess information in the IDL file.
The error "nsdidl: Error:could not run preprocessor: "
cl -E -C filename.idl java.io.IOException:
CreateProcess: cl -E -C filename.idl error=2"
will be received if the "cl.exe" program can not be found by the
NSDIDL compiler.
NOTE: If you wish to use GNU's "C" preprocessor (cpp), you will
need to edit bin\idl2java.bat and change "cl" to "cpp". GNU's "C"
preprocessor can be found on the web at sites such as
www.cygnus.com (under cygwin [full release]). You will also need
to ensure that the "cpp.exe" program is accessible from the PATH
environment as above.
4. If you use the Java 2 platform, you need to copy
lib\orb.properties to <Java 2 root directory>\jre\lib.
5. If you want to use
org.omg.CORBA.ORB.resolve_initial_references("NameService"), you
must also modify the RootNamingContextIORFile setting in the
<jorblite-dir>\lib\lite.dbm file so that it looks like:
NS@name_service_settings RootNamingContextIORFile
<jorblite-dir>\urls\NameService
The file "NameService" must contain the root naming context IOR
of the Naming Service running on a remote NonStop Himalaya
system. The NonStop CORBA subsystem creates this file when it
is configured on the NonStop Himalaya system. It is created
in the directory "<NonStop CORBA installation dir>/urls" on
the NonStop Himalaya system. You must copy this file from the
NonStop Himalaya system into the "<jorblite-dir>\urls"
directory. You can use the Console or FTP to copy this file.
***Special NOTE***
You will want to copy this file to your workstation after each
NonStop CORBA re-configuration on the NonStop Himalaya
system.
6. JORB Lite is now installed and configured.
You can now build and run the samples.
XIII. DOM for Windows NT installation and configuration instructions
NOTE: 1) DOM for Windows NT works only on NT4.0.
(not Windows 95/98).
2) You need Visual C++ version 6.0 in order to use
DOM for Windows NT.
