Specifying runtime properties for C++ CORBA clients and servers

This topic provides an overview of the task to specify the runtime properties for C++ clients and server. You do this by defining the properties in a properties file, and specifying the full path, including the file name, of the properties file on the SOMCBPROPS environment variable. If you want clients and servers to use different properties, you must ensure that the SOMCBPROPS environment variable is set within the local environment of the client or server.

To specify the runtime properties of a C++ client or server, complete the following steps:

  1. Create a properties file; for example, client.props:
  2. Edit the properties file to specify appropriate runtime properties.
    The properties and values that you choose depend on your use of the clients and servers, and are selected from the properties listed in the reference topic Runtime properties for CORBA clients and servers.

    Example properties files (called WSClient.props, WSServer.props, and WSEJBClient.props), which show use appropriate subsets of the runtime properties for CORBA clients and servers, are provided with the WSlogger sample. If you have installed the enterprise services' samples, the properties files are located in WAS_HOME/Enterprise/samples/sampcppsdk

    The values that you specify for the runtime properties must match the equivalent settings used to configure WebSphere Application Server, where applicable.

  3. Specify the name of the properties file on the SOMCBPROPS environment variable.
