NAME

       nameclt - Naming Service client

SYNOPSIS

       nameclt [-ior <object-reference>] [-advanced] <operation>

DESCRIPTION

       The nameclt command invokes operations on the Naming Service.  The allowed operations are:

              list <context-name>
                     lists contexts and objects bound in the context with the specified name.

              bind_new_context <context-name>
                     binds name to a new context, and returns the stringified context IOR.

              remove_context <context-name>
                     unbinds and destroys the named context, as long as it is empty.

              bind <object-name> <stringified-IOR>
                     binds name to object.

              unbind <object-name>
                     unbinds name and object.

              resolve <object-name>
                     returns stringified IOR bound to specified name.

OPTIONS

       -ior NameService-object-reference
              Use  the  given  stringified  IOR  as the "root" context of the naming service.  By
              default,   nameclt   uses   the    object    reference    returned    by    calling
              CORBA::ORB::resolve_initial_references("NameService").

       -advanced
              Allow  advanced operations.  These are operations which should not normally need to
              be used.  They may however be useful for testing the naming service  and  also  for
              cleaning up in the event of a client messing up the namespace.  The operations are:

              bind_context <context-name> <stringified-IOR>
                     binds name to context.

              rebind <object-name> <stringified-IOR>
                     binds name to object even if binding already exists.

              rebind_context <context-name> <stringified-IOR>
                     binds name to context even if binding already exists.

              new_context
                     returns stringified IOR for a new context.

              destroy
                     destroys the naming context given with -ior flag.
