This diary entry is for for my own benefit than anyone
else's. Had
you been expected to understand it, it would have been
composed of
certificate system wibbling
1) CLORB's internal IR is not actually any use to the
rest of CLORB:
anything in CLORB proper that wants to do IR lookups wants
to do them
using CORBA
2) I've therefore wasted whatever time I spent writing a
program to
populate it, given that setting up the internal structures
that CLORB
itself uses (INTERFACE as opposed to INTERFACE-DEF, OPDEF as
opposed
to OPERATION-DEF, etc) would have been just as quick. Ah
well
3) There's something wrong here that it's too late at
night to
usefully put my finger on.
4) orbit-ird is not complete enough to be usable, and can
be
reliably segfaulted on demand. Still, I don't think anyone
really
claimed it was. Someone recommend me a free IR
implementation that does
work? I guess I can try MICO and also whatever Berlin use,
if they do.
n) Oh, go on then, one metagato comment. I preferred
Ryan's diary to lilo's anyway.
