[omniORB] OMNIORB's IDL compiler

[Doru-Catalin Togea]

Hi!

I am writing my master's thesis in computer science, on issues related to
CORBA, among other things. I have no experience with OMNIORB but I
understand it is well developed, well supported and quite efficient.

Can anyone please help me to understand how its OMNIORB's IDL compiler is
built? Which tools have been used (like yacc, bison), on which platforms
will it build and if and where the grammar files are available?

If anyone masters this topic, can you also please informe me as to how
difficult you consider it to be to modify the IDL grammar and rebuild the
compiler for experimental purposes with extended IDLs.

Thank you very much.
Catalin
