Running the Stack Example on OSS

Once you have installed and configured your NonStop CORBA software, you can test the operation of

your system by running a simple CORBA program.

The Stack example is a simple but fully functional CORBA program that has both a client and a server

implemented in C++ and Java. This section discusses the Java version of the example. For the C++

version see Running the C++ Stack Example. Because it contains both client and server applications, the

Stack example is a perfect test for your newly-installed NonStop CORBA system.

The Stack Example Overview

The Stack example can be found in the javasamples/stack subdirectory of your NonStop CORBA

installation. While the intent of this topic is to test your installation, the ReadMe.txt file in the Stack

directory details the workings of the program files.

The Stack example is a program that implements both a CORBA client and server in Java. It is a

complete and working program that demonstrates:

An object interface definition written in the Interface Definition Language (IDL)●

Two POA servers that embody the implementation of the interface defined by the interface

definition

●

A client application which makes use of an instance of a stack object●

In addition to these items, the Stack example can be ported to any platform running an implementation of

CORBA, thus showing the portability of CORBA applications. To demonstrate this portability, you can

build and run the client application on a NonStop DOM system (the sample is supplied with that software

package) and run it with the NonStop JORB application server that services the client requests.
