Synopsis

Returns a pointer to a Tobj::Tobj_Bootstrap object. The Bootstrap object is used to access initial object references for the FactoryFinder object, the Interface Repository, the TransactionCurrent, and the SecurityCurrent objects.

C++ Binding

static Tobj_Bootstrap* TP::bootstrap();

Arguments

None.

Return Value

Upon successful completion, bootstrap() returns a pointer to the Tobj::Tobj_Bootstrap object that is created by the TP Framework when the server application is started.

Exceptions

None.

Description

The TP Framework creates a Tobj::Tobj_Bootstrap object as part of initialization; it is not necessary for the application code to create any other Tobj::Tobj_Bootstrap objects in the server.

Caution: Because the TP Framework owns the Tobj::Tobj_Bootstrap object, server application code must not dispose of the Bootstrap object.

Note: If you are using the CORBA INS bootstrap mechanism and you are not using the SecurityCurrent for security or TransactionCurrent for transactions, you do not need to use the Bootstrap object.
