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.
