You can find full details, and download the utilities, from the following URL: http://www.iona.com/devcenter/corba/utilities.htm For people who are too lazy to go to the above URL, here is a brief summary of what is in the CORBA Utilities package: o A class that simplifies the construction of POA hierarchies. o A short paper that gives an easy-to-understand explanation of the "corbaloc" and "corbaname" URLs. o Utility functions called import_obj_ref() and export_obj_ref() that allow you to decide at runtime (rather than at development time) if you want to import/export object references via files, the Naming Service or some other mechanism. o A thin portability layer that encapsulates the names of CORBA-product-specific header files. o A C++ class library that simplifies synchronization. This library has no dependency on CORBA (so you can use it in non-CORBA applications). o A short paper that provides some useful tips on how to make the Windows "command" window easier to use. o Some Tcl scripts that dramatically simplify Orbix administration. Many of the above issues come up periodically on comp.object.corba. The utilities have been compiled and tested on Windows 2000 with Orbix/C++, Orbix/Java, ORBacus/C++ and ORBacus/Java. I think that it will be quite easy for people to port these utilities to other operating systems and/or CORBA products. Regards, Ciaran.

Unfortunately, I have easier access to Windows than UNIX machines so the Makefiles in the distribution are Windows-specific. I do plan on producing UNIX Makefiles at some stage, but I have more urgent things to work on so this may take a while. Of course, if you would like to hack some UNIX Makefiles together and email them to me then that would be appreciated:-) By the way, the various utilities *have* been compiled on Solaris at some stage in the past, so I am confident that the source code is portable. It is just the Makefile system that needs to be ported. Regards, Ciaran.
