Overview and Roadmap

The OrbixWeb Reference Guide expands on the information presented in the OrbixWeb Programming Guide. It is divided into three parts as described below.

Part I: General Reference

Part I provides full information on several topics introduced in the OrbixWeb Programming Guide:

Chapter 1, "The OrbixWeb Utilities"

This chapter describes and provides the full syntax of the OrbixWeb utilities used to register servers with the Implementation Repository.

Chapter 2, "Compilation of IDL and Java"

This chapter provides full details of the OrbixWeb IDL compiler.

Chapter 3, "OrbixWeb Configuration"

This chapter explains how to configure aspects of OrbixWeb using the OrbixWeb configuration file and configuration class, and also explains how to configure the OrbixWeb locator.

Part II: Class and Interface Reference

Part II describes:

The OrbixWeb classes and their methods.
The IDL interface to the Interface Repository types.
The IDL interface to the OrbixWeb daemon.

Within each of these, classes or interfaces are described in alphabetical order.

Note that the IDL interfaces to the Interface Repository and the OrbixWeb daemon have been compiled using the IDL to Java mapping defined in Chapter 5, "IDL to Java Mapping" of the OrbixWeb Programming Guide. The generated types for these interfaces are available in OrbixWeb and are scoped by the package IE.Iona.Orbix2.

Part III: Appendix

The full syntax of the IDL language is given in Appendix A, "IDL Reference".

Appendix B, "System Exceptions", lists the OrbixWeb system exceptions.
