How to compile and run the RMI-IIOP
program?
1) We require jndi package for running this
program.
We create a folder in c:\jdk1.3\bin\rmicorba.
2) We brought jndi folder into c:\jdk1.3\bin\rmicorba.
3) cd to c:\jdk1.3\bin\rmicorba.
4) set path=c:\windows;c:\windows\command;c:\jdk1.3\bin;
5) set classpath=c:\jdk1.3\bin\rmicorba
6) create greeter.java in this folder.
7) compile greeter.java
8) create and compile greeterimpl.java
9) MOST IMPORTANT STEP.
>rmic
-iiop greeterimpl
(creates
corba style stub and tie class files.)
10) start tnameserv //
( this is transient name server)
>tnameserv
11) Go to another window ,set path &
classpath as before.
start the server and register the remote
object. (this line must be typed most carefully without break!)
(continuously).
>java -Djava.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory
-Djava.naming.provider.url=iiop://localhost
helloimpl
( -Djava means we are supplying runtime
properties)
12) If every thing is done correctly , you will
find the following
message in the console.
'remote server ready!'
'sam is registered and waiting for
call'
13) Now compile greeterclientservlet.java
We have to set classpath=%classpath%;c:\jsdk2.0\src
14) After compiling copy all the classfiles in
c:\jdk1.3\bin\rmicorba folder to
c:\tomcat\webapps\root\web-inf\classes
folder
15) copy greeterclientservlet.htm to c:\tomcat\webapps\root
directory.
16) Start the tomcat server as already seen.
17) type the URL as 'http://localhost:8080/greeterclientservlet.htm"
in the browser.
18) We get the form. Type your name ( say
'Thomas') and submit.
19) We will get the greeting :
" SUN'S RMI-IIOP(RMI-CORBA)
PROGRAM WELCOMES ...Thomas"
20) Thus we have invoked the remote object's
method in Corba style.
21) So far so good. But how about the
automatic generation of IDL for non-java end? This is the best part of
RMI--IIOP,
See step 9 listed above.
We used the -iiop flag while invoking rmic
compiler.
If we use -idl flag
instead, we get the idl file automatically generated.
We can then distribute
this idl file to other corba customers.
You would have noticed that , we have changed the
order in which distributed order technologies in the j2ee basket were
mentioned. Instaed of taking up JAVA-IDL after RMI, we took up
RMI-IIOP. This way, we can easily compare RMI & RMI-IIOP.
Just to complete the picture, we
will now see the JAVA-IDL version of the same program and then on to the
meat of J2EE (IE) EJB.
There are 4 files as follows:
1) greeter.idl
2) greeterserver.java
3) greeterservlet.java
4) greeterservlet.htm
We begin with greeter.idl , which is the
interface file written in OMG-IDL.
Let us edit this file in say, c:\idl
folder.
Set path for the dos window
c:\idl>set path=c:\windows\command;c:\jdk1.3\bin
Also set classpath:
c:\idl>set classpath=c:\idl
Create greeter.idl as given below.
greeter.idl
interface greeter
{
string greetme(in string s);
};
We now use the idl compiler in jdk1.3 as follows:
c:\idl>idlj -fall greeter.idl
This command creates a number of java source
files as follows:
1) greeter.java
2) _greeterImplBase.java
3) _greeterStub.java
4) greeterHelper.java
5) greeterHolder.java
6) greeterOperations.java
These files are created in the same
folder as greeter.idl because we have not specified 'module' in the idl
file. This is a simple method.
Now, create greeterserver.java in the same folder
as follows:
greeterserver.java
import org.omg.CORBA.*;
import org.omg.CosNaming.*;
import java.io.*;
public class greeterserver
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
try
{
ORB orb =
ORB.init(args,null);
greeterservant ref
= new greeterservant();
orb.connect(ref);
org.omg.CORBA.Object objRef =orb.resolve_initial_references("NameService");
NamingContext
ncRef = NamingContextHelper.narrow(objRef);
NameComponent
nc = new NameComponent("greeter","");
NameComponent
path[] = {nc};
ncRef.rebind(path,ref);
System.out.println("server ready...waiting for client");
java.lang.Object
sync = new java.lang.Object();
synchronized(sync)
{
sync.wait();
}
}
catch(Exception e1)
{
System.out.println(" "+e1);
}
}//main
}//class
//-------------
class
greeterservant extends _greeterImplBase
{
public
String greetme(String s)
{
return "How are you....?"+s;
}
}
Compile all the java files as
follows:
c:\idl>javac *.java
This compiles all the java
files in the folder.
We now create the servlet file which
is the client for the corba program.
greeterservlet.java
import org.omg.CORBA.*;
import org.omg.CosNaming.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class greeterservlet
extends HttpServlet
{
greeter server;
public void init(ServletConfig
config) throws ServletException
{
super.init(config);
try
{
ORB orb =
ORB.init((String[])null,null);
org.omg.CORBA.Object objRef =
orb.resolve_initial_references("NameService");
NamingContext
ncRef = NamingContextHelper.narrow(objRef);
NameComponent nc =
new NameComponent("greeter","");
NameComponent
path[] = {nc};
server =
greeterHelper.narrow(ncRef.resolve(path));
System.out.println("servlet init ok!");
} catch(Exception e1){System.out.println(""+e1);}
} //init
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest
request,HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException,IOException
{
response.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter out=response.getWriter();
String a =request.getParameter("text1");
// name
System.out.println(a);
String s1=server.greetme(a);
out.println(s1);
}
} //--servlet
over-----
To compile the servlet file, we should set
classpath as follows:
c:\idl>set classpath=%classpath%;c:\jsdk2.0\src;
c:\idl>javac greeterservlet.java
This command compiles the servlet.
The following html file invokes the
servlet.
<html>
<body>
<form method=post
action="http://localhost:8080/servlet/greeterservlet">
<input type=text name='text1'>
<input type=submit>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Now, we copy greeterservlet.htm to c:\tomcat\webapps\root
Then we copy all the class files in
c:\idl folder to:
c:\tomcat\webapps\root\web-inf\classes
folder.
We are now ready to test our corba
program.
Start Tomcat as before.
Start the browser and type the
URL as:
"http://localhost:8080/greeterservlet.htm"
We get a form with a textbox. Fill
up your name,say Thomas and
submit.
We will get :
"How are
you...?Thomas".
We have completed the first leg of our
long journey.
In the second part, we will take up EJB , XML
etc. In the previous instalment , we familiarized ourselves with
Servlet, JSP, JavaMail, JDBC, RMI, RMI-IIOP and IDL. as, these were
preliminaries to grapple with EJB. Now , it
is time to takeup EJB.
