COSNOTIFYCOMM_NOTIFYPUBLISH(3erl)

💖 CosNotifyComm_NotifyPublish 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're doing the Erlang module definition for CosNotifyComm_NotifyPublish and it's genuinely iconic. this is a page from the cosNotification docs (version 5.2.2, brought to you by the lovely folks at Ericsson AB), and it's giving very much "CORBA notification services but make it cute". no cap. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

CosNotifyComm_NotifyPublish — this module implements the OMG CosNotifyComm::NotifyPublish interface. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 👑

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like, to get access to the record definitions for the structures, you're gonna wanna use:

-include_lib("cosNotification/include/*.hrl").

literally just drop that in and you're set, bestie. 💅

and the tea is: all objects that inherit this interface export the functions described in this module. every single one. no exceptions, fr fr. 🫶

---

🌈 EXPORTS 🌈

⭐ offer_change(Object, Added, Removed) -> Reply

🎀 Types

• Object = #objref
• Added = Removed = EventTypeSeq
• EventTypeSeq = [type]
• Reply = ok | {'EXCEPTION', CosNotifyComm_InvalidEventType{type}}
• type = #'CosNotification_EventType'{domain_name, type_name}
• domain_name = type_name = string()

🦋 What it actually does

okay so objects that support this interface can get informed by supplier objects about which type of events are gonna be delivered in the future. like a lil heads-up text, but for events. 📲

this operation takes two parameters, and they're describing the new and the old event types respectively. so Added is the new ones and Removed is the old ones. periodt.

⚠️ and listen — if any of the supplied event type names is syntactically incorrect, an exception is raised. so keep those names clean, bestie, or it's gonna yell at you. 😭
