About:
omniORB is a robust, high-performance CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) implementation. This package provides essential command-line utilities for working with IORs (Interoperable Object References) and the omniORB Naming Service. These tools are critical for debugging, inspecting, and managing distributed object systems built with omniORB.

Key Features:

Converts between IOR strings and human-readable formats
Provides command-line interface for the Naming Service
Enables inspection of remote object references
Essential for debugging distributed CORBA applications

Use Cases:

Debugging connectivity issues in CORBA-based distributed systems
Registering and querying services via the Naming Service
Parsing and validating object references in system logs

Alternatives:

tAO – The ACE ORB is another major CORBA implementation, primarily focused on real-time systems
JacORB – A Java-based CORBA implementation offering similar utilities within the Java ecosystem
