Notes on building the SoapBridge programs.

1. Generating the C++ files from the IDL files.

We have included a script to build the C++ files from the IDL files. You will need this if you obtained the sources from CVS or if you are planning to use another ORB than Orbacus4.

*NIX:
chmod +x runMeFirst
./runMeFirst

W*NDOW$:
ren runMeFirst runMeFirst.bat
runMeFirst

2. Problems running configure.

For reference, here is everything you should have in your environment, if optional packages are installed in /opt:

------------- .bashrc --------------
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/xerces-c1_5_0-linux/lib:/opt/orbacus/lib export PATH=$PATH:/opt/orbacus/bin:/opt/xerces-c1_5_0-linux/bin export ORBACUS_CONFIG=~/orbacus.cfg
export CPPFLAGS='-I/opt/orbacus/include -I/opt/xerces-c1_5_0-linux/include/

-I/usr/include/mysql'
export LIBS='-L/opt/orbacus/lib -L/opt/xerces-c1_5_0-linux/lib/

-L/usr/lib/mysql'
------------- .bashrc --------------

3. Orbacus configuration.

You should have a file "orbacus.cfg" in your home directory with something like the following contents:

------------- orbacus.cfg -------------- ooc.orb.service.NameService=corbaloc::localhost:5000/NameService ooc.orb.oa.conc_model=thread_pool
ooc.orb.oa.thread_pool=5
------------- orbacus.cfg --------------
