ORB configuration

The file (in <Rational Rhapsody installation path>\Share\Properties contains the subject CORBA properties. The CORBA::Configuration::ORB property defines which ORB is selected to work with a specific configuration. You can build a component with different configurations, each using a different ORB, by modifying the ORB property for each configuration.

By default, the CORBA::Configuration::ORB property is set to TAO. However, a UserDefinedORB metaclass is also available, whose default settings correspond to the TAO settings. To add another ORB, you can modify the UserDefinedORB settings to hold the values of the new ORB.

In addition, you can add as many new ORB definitions as you want. Being able to add new ORB definitions allows teams to use different versions or dialects of the same ORB or to evaluate new ORBs. To add multiple ORBs, copy the UserDefinedORB settings to the site.prp file, edit them there, then add more ORB entries as needed.
