8.5.4.22 Partition Attribute Termination

The Ada Reference Manual does not provide any specific rule to handle global termination of a distributed application (see Abortion and Termination).

In PolyORB/DSA, by default, a set of partitions terminates when each partition can terminate and when no message remains to be delivered. A distributed algorithm that checks for this global condition is activated periodically by the main boot server.

     
     TERMINATION_LITERAL ::= Global_Termination |
                             Local_Termination  |
                             Deferred_Termination
     
     REPRESENTATION_CLAUSE ::=
        for PARTITION_IDENTIFIER'Termination use TERMINATION_LITERAL;
