IDL Runner
The IDL Runner allows to perform the remote operations on a remote CORBA object as well as to get or set the IDL interface's attributes, if any.
The IDL Runner should be connected to a remote CORBA object by dragging that object's IOR or CORBA URL into the IOR well in the Runner window.
The operation is sent to a CORBA server in a separate thread, so it doesn't block the application.
The IDL Runner supports all the IDL types including any
, valuetype
, abstract interfaces, as well as the recursive definitions and arbitrary value graphs.
The IDL Runner window may be opened for any IDL type in a browser, except modules, as well as for any item in another IDL Runner. In the latter case new IDLBrowser will share the value sub-tree with the source until the top level item's value is replaced. This allows to edit large item trees in several windows.
