Example 4: Hello World with Implementation Inheritance

Ordinarily, servant classes must inherit from the ImplBase class generated by the idlj compiler. This is inadequate for servant classes that need to inherit functionality from another Java class. The Java programming language allows a class only one superclass and the generated ImplBase class occupies this position.

Example 4 illustrates how a servant class can inherit (an implementation) from any Java class. In this example, the HelloServant class inherits its entire implementation from another Java class HelloBasic. At runtime, method requests for HelloServant are delegated to another idlj-generated class.

Example 4 is identical to Example 1 except for implementation inheritance enhancements. This page only discusses the code necessary for these enhancements.

This section contains:

The IDL for a simple "Hello World" program
A server implementation that delegates method requests for HelloServant to another Java class.
A client program.

Instructions for compiling and running the example are provided.

Interface Definition (`Hello.idl`)

module HelloApp
{
    interface Hello
    {
        string sayHello();
    };
};

Compile the IDL interface with the command:

        idlj -fall -ftie  Hello.idl

This generates two additional files in a HelloApp subdirectory:

_HelloOperations.java: The servant class will implement this interface.
_HelloTie.java: This class acts as the skeleton, receiving invocations from the ORB and delegating them to the servant that actually does the work.

            synchronized (sync) {

            org.omg.CORBA.Object objRef = orb.resolve_initial_references("NameService");
            NamingContext ncRef = NamingContextHelper.narrow(objRef);

            // resolve the Object Reference in Naming
            NameComponent nc = new NameComponent("Hello", "");
            NameComponent path[] = {nc};
            Hello helloRef = HelloHelper.narrow(ncRef.resolve(path));
 
	    // call the Hello server object and print results
	    String hello = helloRef.sayHello();
	    System.out.println(hello);
 
	} catch (Exception e) {
	    System.out.println("ERROR : " + e) ;
	    e.printStackTrace(System.out);
	}
    }
}

Building and Running Hello World

The following instructions assume you can use port 1050 for the Java IDL name server. Substitute a different port if necessary. Note that for ports below 1024, you need root access on UNIX machines, and administrator privileges on Windows95 and NT. Note also that the instructions use a slash (/) for path names. Windows95 and NT users should subtitute a backslash (\).

Create source code files as shown above.
Run idlj on the IDL file to create stubs and skeletons:
```
	idlj  -fall -ftie Hello.idl
```
Compile the .java files, including the stubs and skeletons:
```
	javac *.java HelloApp/*.java
```
Make sure the name server is running:
```
	tnameserv -ORBInitialPort 1050&
```
Start the Hello server:
```
	java HelloServer -ORBInitialPort 1050
```
Run the Hello application client from a different shell than the server:
```
	java HelloClient -ORBInitialPort 1050
```
