NAME

       eventc - create a CORBA EventChannel and register it in the naming service

SYNOPSIS

       eventc [-n channel-name] [-N factory-name] [-c nanoseconds] [-i id] [-p num] [-q num]
              [-R milliseconds] [-t repository-id] [-vh] [-ORBparameter value] [factory-uri]

DESCRIPTION

       eventc contacts the omniEvents server to request an Event Channel. The  Event  Channel  is
       created within the the omniEvents process. eventc then registers the created Event Channel
       with the Naming Service, and exits.

       factory-uri: The factory may be specified as a URI. This may be an IOR, or  a  corbaloc:::
       or corbaname::: URI.

       Example: eventc corbaloc::localhost:11169/omniEvents

       If  the  factory-uri  argument is not supplied, then the -N factory-name option is used to
       look up the server in the CORBA Name Service.

OPTIONS

       -n channel-name
              Sets the CORBA Name Service name for the new EventChannel CORBA object.

              Format for channel-name: [CONTEXT-ID[.CONTEXT-KIND]/]*OBJECT-ID[.OBJECT-KIND]

              Examples: foo, foo.bar, foo.bar/baz/qux, foo/bar/baz.qux.

              The default is EventChannel

       -N factory-name
              The CORBA Name Service name for the EventChannelFactory CORBA object.  The  default
              value is EventChannelFactory. This value is only used when the factory-uri argument
              is not supplied.

       -c nanoseconds
              Sets the CyclePeriod_ns parameter of the new event channel.

       -i id  Set the InsName of new event channel, to enable access via corbaloc.

       -p num Sets the MaxNumProxies parameter of the new event channel.

       -q num Sets the MaxQueueLength parameter of the new event channel.

       -R milliseconds
              Sets the PullRetryPeriod_ms parameter of the new event channel.

       -t repository-id
              Sets the FilterId parameter of the new event channel.

       -v     Output the CORBA IOR of the new EventChannel CORBA object.

       -h     Display a short summary of command-line options.

       -ORBparameter value
              Standard omniORB options. see omniORB documentation for  details.  This  option  is
              commonly used to set the omniORB traceLevel, in order to get more detailed output.

              Example: -ORBtraceLevel 5
