[omniORB] Interface repository

[Mair Quentin]

Probably not very good code (please no flame) but works...

in orminORB.cfg:

with omniifr running on <host> <port>

ORBInitRef InterfaceRepository=corbaloc::<host>:<port>/DefaultRepository

#!/usr/bin/env python

# Simple IR Parser

import sys, omniORB

# Import the CORBA module
from omniORB import CORBA

if len(sys.argv) != 2:
 print "Usage: %s <Scoped Interface Name>" % (sys.argv[0])
 sys.exit(1)
else: interface = sys.argv[1]

# For OmniORBpy you have to explicitly load the stubs
#  for the IR. This is to keep the default stubs small.
omniORB.importIRStubs()

# Initialise the ORB
orb = CORBA.ORB_init(sys.argv, CORBA.ORB_ID)

# Obtain a reference to the interface repository
irep = orb.resolve_initial_references("InterfaceRepository")
   
rootRep = irep._narrow(CORBA.Repository)
    
if rootRep is None:
    print "Failed to narrow the repository"
    sys.exit(1)

print "Interface is '", interface, "'"
print

try:
  c = rootRep.lookup(interface)

  iv = c._narrow(CORBA.InterfaceDef)

  full = iv.describe_interface()
  
except:
  print "Couldn't find Interface?, Interface:", interface
  sys.exit(1)

for opobj in full.operations:

  print "operation:", opobj.name
  print "result:", opobj.result.kind()
  print "parameters: "
  
  for parobj in opobj.parameters:
     print "%s (%s, %s) " % (parobj.name, parobj.type.kind(), parobj.mode)
     
  print "exceptions raised: "
  for excobj in opobj.exceptions:  
     print excobj.name
    
  print
