Naming Service (CORBA) of XIndice
Hello,
does anyone know how to access the naming service of XIndice over web
server (http://localhost:4080/NamingService does not work) or how to
find the IOR-string of the naming service. I need this for accessing the
database from a C++-Client using CORBA.
The former version of dbxml supported this very well and there was a
NamingService-File in the docs-directery, containing the IOR-string. Now
I am using the latest XIndice version from cvs tree and cannot find a
way to access the naming service.
Thanks in advance!

I took the naming service out in dbXML 1.0b4 since it wasn't really
necessary. Instead of using the naming service we just retrieve the IOR
for the API via HTTP. The IOR is in the file db_bootstrap.ior. If you can
retrieve the file via HTTP you can invoke ORB.string_to_object on it to
get the instance. Look at the code in
org.apache.xindice.client.xmldb.DatabaseImpl to see how it's done in the
API.
Be aware though, we're planning to replace CORBA with SOAP or XML-RPC in
the future.
