NAME

       events - stream events from or to a CORBA EventChannel

SYNOPSIS

       events [-n channel-name] [-s] [-h] [-ORBparameter value] [channel-uri]

DESCRIPTION

       events  streams  events  from  an  event channel to standard output, or (-s) from standard
       input to an event channel.

       Events are streamed in raw binary form, accompanied by a timestamp.  When  the  stream  is
       played  back  into  a  channel,  the timestamps are used the replicate the original delays
       between the messages.

       The main use for this command it to record sets of events and play  them  back  later  for
       testing.

       Recording example: events corbaname::#EventChannel > test.dat

       Playback example: events -s corbaname::#EventChannel < test.dat
