CORBA::IOP::IOR - Decode, munge, and re-encode CORBA IORs.
SYNOPSIS
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
require CORBA::IOP::IOR;
$ior = new CORBA::IOP::IOR;
$ior->parseIOR($ARGV[0]);
$ior->printHash();
$ior->{IIOP_profile}->{host} = "host.domain.name";
print $ior->stringifyIOR(), "\n";
INSTALLATION
The installation uses ExtUtils::MakeMaker. Uncompress and extract
the files from the tar, then:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
DESCRIPTION
CORBA::IOP::IOR is a handy module for processing IORs. I've found
it very useful for debugging CORBA interoperability.
It was written without much of a look at other Perl CORBA efforts
(COPE etc.), and is small and understandable.
You could do what this module does with COPE, but it would be a
sledgehammer to crack a nut. IOR::IOR is intended to be useful
for quick and dirty IOR munging - not a full ORB.
TO DO
Some documentation might be nice.
I think whats here is correct, but it needs to be checked against
the OMG spec.'s a bit more rigorously.
Decode TAG_MULTIPLE_COMPONENTS.
