[omniORB] CosTrading and omniidl

[Robert E. Gruber]

To expand on Duncan's answer,

In libdefs.mk, the variable COS_INTERFACES controls which interfaces are
included in the COS library and also which corresponding .hh files are
exported to the top level include/COS directory.

The file cosinterfaces.mk in the same directory is a helper file that
defines useful sets of interfaces that correspond to the different
standards.  It also goes over the depenencies between the interfaces --
ordering in the COS_INTERFACES list can matter.  The definition of
COS_ALL_INT shows you one way to get the order correct.

The default (see libdefs.mk) is currently:

COS_INTERFACES = $(TIMEBASE_INT) $(COS_EVT_INT) $(COS_NFY_INT)
$(COS_LCB_INT)

This set is needed to support omniNotify.

You just need to add $(COS_TRD_INT), the best place is probably just after
$(TIMEBASE_INT)

In the v3.0.4 download of omniORB the CosTrading includes
are not built. Is this a config option somewhere?
