omniORB-cmake

DEPRECATED

Some marshalling issue was found on Windows when using this fork to compile omniorb. See conda-forge/omniorb-feedstock#37.

conda-forge recipe was updated to use the official build system: conda-forge/omniorb-feedstock#38. This fork is unmaintained.

This is a fork from https://sourceforge.net/p/omniorb/svn/ which allows to build omniORB using CMake.

All the work was done by Julian Scholle: https://github.com/CaeruleusAqua/omniORB-cmake. Big thanks! As he doesn't maintain it anymore, I forked the repository and re-organised it using different branches.

• The main branch only includes this README.
• The master branch comes from the https://github.com/CaeruleusAqua/omniORB-cmake repository where initial work was done. It'not used anymore.
• The branch 4_2 is used to keep official releases.
• Modifications for cmake are in the 4_2_cmake branch.

To add a new release:

• Download and commit the new omniORB release:

  git checkout 4_2
  git rm -rf *
  tar xfj ../omniORB-4.2.x.tar.bz2
  mv omniORB-4.2.x/* .
  rmdir omniORB-4.2.x
  git add .
  git commit -m "omniORB 4.2.x"
  git tag -a 4.2.x
  

• Merge the changes in the 4_2_cmake branch:

  git checkout 4_2_cmake
  git merge 4_2
  

• Edit the CMakeLists.txt file to bump the cmake OmniORB version to 4.2.x. Commit your change.

• Review the changes in the 4.2.x release and check if any change is required in the build system (files to add in the CMakeLists.txt).

• To generate a patch, run:

  git diff 4.2.x > /tmp/omniorb-4.2.x-cmake.patch
