The [OmniORB homepage].
From OnlineSoftware version 00-20-00, OmniORB took over from ILU as the default CORBA implementation.
See also CORBA, ORB, DocumentationForOmniMigration and AcronymSoup.
python needs omnipy, to get this we will need to add omnipy to the tdaq release, which will mean compiling tdaq

Python notes in SctApiIPC/PythonBuild/README
Read this readme file. Then read the comments in getInitRef.py and try running it. The file getInitRef.py steps the user through navigating an IPC tree and connecting to objects. # The version of omniidl that comes with TDAQ does not include suport for python bindings. Therefore as a different user (lester) I installed omniORB and omniORBpy with # # configure --prefix=/atlas/lester/usr/local # # Having done so, we can use this better version of omniorb to generate python stubs back as user "sctrod" in the following way: #/atlas/lester/usr/local/bin/omniidl -bpython -I/r16/atlas/tdaq/tdaq/tdaq-01-08-04/installed/include -I$SCT_DAQ_ROOT/include ../SctApi.idl /r16/atlas/tdaq/tdaq/tdaq-01-08-04/installed/include/ipc/ipc.idl ../../sctConfIPC/configuration.idl ../../SCT/src/Addressing.idl /atlas/lester/usr/local/bin/omniidl -bpython -I$TDAQ_INST_PATH/include -I$SCT_DAQ_ROOT/include \ $TDAQ_INST_PATH/include/ipc/ipc.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/AnalysisService/src/AnalysisServiceInterface.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/ArchivingService/src/ArchivingServiceInterface.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/CalibrationController/src/ipc/CalibrationController.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/FittingService/service/FitterInterface.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SCT/CORBA_Test/example1/Rabbit.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SCT/CORBA_Test/example2/Rabbit.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SCT/UnitTest/marshalling.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SCT/src/Addressing.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SCT/src/DeletableServant.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SCT/src/RefCountServant.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SCTTestAPI/SctTestApi.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SctApiIPC/SctApi.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SctService/src/SctService.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/SctService/test/ObserverInterface.idl \ $SCT_DAQ_ROOT/sctConfIPC/configuration.idl # Makes # SctApi_idl.py SctApi_idl.pyc Sct_SctApi Sct_SctApi__POA #Then export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/atlas/lester/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages #which amounts in cambridge to # export PYTHONPATH=/r16/atlas/tdaq/tdaq/tdaq-01-08-04/installed/i686-slc4-gcc34-opt/lib:/atlas/lester/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages # and presumably export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/atlas/lester/usr/local/lib #in cern I only installed omniorbpy in /tmp/usr/local on pcatsct06, so here I use instead export PYTHONPATH=PythonStubs:/tmp/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages:/afs/cern.ch/atlas/project/tdaq/cmt/tdaq-01-09-00/installed/i686-slc4-gcc34-opt/lib:/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages #Later I moved /tmp/usr to ~sctroddq/lester/usr and so now need export PYTHONPATH=PythonStubs:$HOME/lester/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages:/afs/cern.ch/atlas/project/tdaq/cmt/tdaq-01-09-00/installed/i686-slc4-gcc34-opt/lib:/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:PythonLibs #then python import SctApi_idl or to run our test python script getInitRef.py from the current directory do python import getInitRef
