An RPC can now be aborted on the client side, and this causes a notification to be sent on the session, and an attempt to abort execution on the server side. When a client disconnects, an abort is also implicitly generated for all its requests that are still being served. Fixes J817-001 ---- date: 2010/09/03 17:36:41; author: quinot; Change committed by mistake as part of a larger commit. RH should have read: Fix to change for J521-019 to also pass name_service on the command line in the case of a local launch, since we can't rely on the parameter always being present in the environment. ---- date: 2010/09/03 17:37:23; author: quinot; (the above comment applies to the modification of polyorb-dsa_p-remote_launch.adb in this revision).

PolyORB 2.7 NEW FEATURES LIST
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
Copyright (C) 2009-2010, AdaCore
|
|
|
|
This file contains a complete list of new features in version 2.7 of PolyORB.
|
|
See also file NEWS for various information about this release.
|
|
|
|
An ISO date (YYYY-MM-DD) appears in parentheses after the description line.
|
|
This date shows the implementation date of the feature. Any 2.7 wavefront
|
|
subsequent to this date will contain the indicated feature, as will any
|
|
subsequent releases.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-J817-001 Abortable RPC (2010-09-03)
|
|
|
|
Remote subprogram calls can now safely be aborted using asynchronous
|
|
transfer of control. The abortion is notified to the server, and an attempt
|
|
is made to cancel the server side execution of the call.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-J723-021 Time stamps in traces (2010-07-28)
|
|
|
|
Time stamps can now optionally be generated for trace messages logged
|
|
to standard error. This feature is enabled by setting "timestamp=true"
|
|
in section [log] of the PolyORB configuration.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-J521-019 DSA starter does not depend on Bourne shell (2010-08-31)
|
|
|
|
The generated Ada and shell starters for DSA applications do not require
|
|
the remote node to provide a Bourne shell anymore.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-J511-001 po_gnatdist reports Name_Server setting (2010-05-12)
|
|
|
|
If a pragma Name_Server is given in the configuration file, po_gnatdist
|
|
reports this information in its output.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-J317-029 Better selection of local IP address (2010-04-27)
|
|
|
|
PolyORB now tries to avoid using a loopback address when creating
|
|
profiles designating local listening sockets, so that the generated IORs
|
|
or URLs are valid beyond the local host.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-J225-018 Allow CORBA.Any to be used at library level (2010-02-27)
|
|
|
|
Objects of CORBA.Any type can be declared at library level now, and
|
|
be elaborated before initialization of ORB.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-J118-027 Use minimal perfect hash functions (2010-03-11)
|
|
|
|
The Ada code generated by iac now uses minimal perfect hash functions rather
|
|
than cascading 'if' statements in the Skel. This is a speed improvement,
|
|
especially when there are a large number of methods.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-IC22-022 Disable style checks in po_gnatdist generated files (2009-12-23)
|
|
|
|
Style checks are now turned off for source files generated by po_gnatdist
|
|
to avoid spurious messages if user enables such checks from the command
|
|
line using -gnaty.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-IC17-020 Allow child library procedure as partition mains (2010-01-13)
|
|
|
|
A child library procedure can now be used as the main subprogram of a
|
|
partition (this was not previously supported).
|
|
|
|
NF-27-IC17-019 Renamed PolyORB project files (2009-12-17)
|
|
|
|
The project files distributed with PolyORB have been renamed to include
|
|
a "polyorb_" prefix, to avoid clashes with user project files.
|
|
|
|
NF-27-IB23-017 Embedded name server for DSA applications (2009-12-04)
|
|
|
|
A small embedded name server can be optionally integrated in the main
|
|
partition of a DSA application, to remove the requirement for a separate
|
|
name server. This is achieved using pragma Name_Server (Embedded).
|
|
Note that this currently also requires pragma Starter (Ada).
|
|
|
|
NF-27-IA16-043 Use atomic builtins for reference counting (2009-11-13)
|
|
|
|
Atomic increment and decrement operations are now used for reference
|
|
counting within the PolyORB runtime, instead of mutex-protected counters,
|
|
on platforms where such operations are supported by GCC. This affords
|
|
improved performances when using tasking on these platforms.
