<p>
This section describes the format of the <code class="filename">.server</code> files
used by applications to tell the Bonobo Activation daemon about the
interfaces they support.
</p>
<div class="sect1">
<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both">
<a name="server-tag"></a>The <code class="sgmltag-element">oaf_server</code> tag</h2></div></div></div>
<p>
Here follows a simple example of a minimalist
<code class="filename">.server</code> file.
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
<oaf_info>
<oaf_server iid="OAFIID:Bonobo_CosNaming_NamingContext"
type="exe"
location="/usr/lib/bonobo-activation/bonobo-activation-server">
</oaf_server>
</oaf_info></pre>
<p>
Each <code class="sgmltag-element">oaf_server</code> entry conventionally has three mandatory
properties:
<span class="emphasis"><em>iid</em></span> (the FAQ of the Bonobo API reference manual
explains how to create an iid),
<span class="emphasis"><em>type</em></span> (can be <span class="emphasis"><em>exe,</em></span>
<span class="emphasis"><em>factory,</em></span> or <span class="emphasis"><em>shlib</em></span>) and
<span class="emphasis"><em>location</em></span>.
</p>
<p>
If the type is <span class="emphasis"><em>exe,</em></span> <span class="emphasis"><em>location</em></span> is
the name of the executable which creates the CORBA interfaces associated to
this entry and registers them to Bonobo Activation.
If the type is <span class="emphasis"><em>factory,</em></span> <span class="emphasis"><em>location</em></span>
is the iid of the component which can create the corresponding CORBA
server.
If the type is <span class="emphasis"><em>shlib,</em></span> <span class="emphasis"><em>location</em></span> is
the name of the library the code is in: <code class="filename">libgmf</code>
for example.
</p>
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
<h3 class="title">Portability Note</h3>
<p>
Don't include the <code class="filename">.so</code> suffix common on Linux
systems in the <span class="emphasis"><em>location</em></span> of a
<span class="emphasis"><em>shlib</em></span> component.
</p>
</div>
<p>
Here follows a simple example of a component activated through a factory:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
<oaf_info>
<oaf_server iid="OAFIID:Bonobo_Sample_Echo_Factory" type="exe"
location="/usr/lib/bonobo-2.0/samples/bonobo-echo-2">
</oaf_server>
<oaf_server iid="OAFIID:Bonobo_Sample_Echo" type="factory"
location="OAFIID:Bonobo_Sample_Echo_Factory">
</oaf_server>
</oaf_info></pre>
<p>
If you ask Bonobo Activation to activate the
<code class="classname">OAFIID:Bonobo_Sample_Echo</code> component,
Bonobo Activation will first check if it is a factory, make sure the
corresponding factory compoenent is running (by activating it. Here,
activating the factory component is a matter of launching the executable)
and call <code class="function">create</code> on the factory.
It will return you that object.
