14 This is the simple time server given in chapter 3 of the book.
15 There is a server process which holds a servant object which can return
16 the current Greenwich time, and a client process which can acess this
20 This example must be built with native C++ exceptions, and with an ACE/TAO
21 build with exceptions. Make sure to use TAO_FLAG Ge=0 to ensure
22 that CORBA::Environment variables are not created in the IDL generated
25 With GNU make, simply type
29 to create the executable server and client
32 The server takes no parameters nor command line options and returns an
33 IOR to stdout. The server then waits infinitely for clients requests.
36 The client takes an IOR from the command line, prints out the current
40 This is currently a UNIX only script! It starts up the server, redirecting
41 stdout to a file, then passes the file's contents to the command line of
42 the client. After the client terminates, the server is killed.
