Using the NotifyMonitoringExt::EventChannelFactory.

Obtain the CosNotification Service EventChannelFactory from the Name Service as you normally would. Instead of narrowing it to a CosNotifyChannelAdmin::EventChannelFactory, narrow it to a NotifyMonitoringExt::EventChannelFactory.

  CosNaming::Name name(1);
  name.length(1);
  name[0].id = CORBA::string_dup("NotifyEventChannelFactory");

  CORBA::Object_var obj = naming_context->resolve(name);

  NotifyMonitoringExt::EventChannelFactory_var notify_factory =
    NotifyMonitoringExt::EventChannelFactory::_narrow(obj.in());

You can then create named event channels using the create_named_channel method.

  CosNotification::QoSProperties initial_qos;
  CosNotification::AdminProperties initial_admin;
  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::ChannelID id;

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::EventChannel_var ec =
    notify_factory->create_named_channel(initial_qos,
                                         initial_admin,
                                         id,
                                         "Name of Event Channel");

Using the NotifyMonitoringExt::ConsumerAdmin.

Obtain the NotifyMonitoringExt::ConsumerAdmin as you would the CosNotifyChannelAdmin::ConsumerAdmin. However, it must then be narrowed to a NotifyMonitoringExt::ConsumerAdmin.

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::AdminID admin_id;

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::ConsumerAdmin_var admin =
    ec->new_for_consumers(CosNotifyChannelAdmin::OR_OP, admin_id);

  NotifyMonitoringExt::ConsumerAdmin_var madmin =
    NotifyMonitoringExt::ConsumerAdmin::_narrow(admin.in());

It is also possible to create named ConsumerAdmin objects using the following.

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::AdminID admin_id;

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::ConsumerAdmin_var admin =
    ec->named_new_for_consumers(CosNotifyChannelAdmin::OR_OP, admin_id,
                                "ConsumerAdmin Name");

  NotifyMonitoringExt::ConsumerAdmin_var madmin =
    NotifyMonitoringExt::ConsumerAdmin::_narrow(admin.in());

Once you have a NotifyMonitoringExt::ConsumerAdmin you can then create a named proxy push supplier:

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::ProxyID proxy_id;

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::ProxySupplier_var proxy_supplier =
    admin->obtain_named_notification_push_supplier (
                    CosNotifyChannelAdmin::STRUCTURED_EVENT,
                    proxy_id,
                    "Consumer Name");

Using the NotifyMonitoringExt::SupplierAdmin.

Obtain the NotifyMonitoringExt::SupplierAdmin as you would the CosNotifyChannelAdmin::SupplierAdmin. However, it must then be narrowed to a NotifyMonitoringExt::SupplierAdmin.

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::AdminID admin_id;

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::SupplierAdmin_var admin =
    ec->new_for_suppliers(CosNotifyChannelAdmin::AND_OP, admin_id);

  NotifyMonitoringExt::SupplierAdmin_var madmin =
    NotifyMonitoringExt::SupplierAdmin::_narrow(admin.in());

It is also possible to create named ConsumerAdmin objects using the following.

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::AdminID admin_id;

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::SupplierAdmin_var admin =
    ec->named_new_for_suppliers(CosNotifyChannelAdmin::AND_OP, admin_id,
                                "SupplierAdmin Name");

  NotifyMonitoringExt::SupplierAdmin_var madmin =
    NotifyMonitoringExt::SupplierAdmin::_narrow(admin.in());

Once you have a NotifyMonitoringExt::SupplierAdmin you can then create a named proxy push consumer:

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::ProxyID proxy_id;

  CosNotifyChannelAdmin::ProxyConsumer_var proxy_consumer =
    admin->obtain_named_notification_push_consumer (
                    CosNotifyChannelAdmin::STRUCTURED_EVENT,
                    proxy_id,
                    "Supplier Name");

Effects of using these interfaces

Using these extended interfaces allows users to link descriptive names to various objects held within the CosNotification Service. Assuming that the Notify_Service has been configured to enable the monitoring capabilities, these objects would normally be given names that are equivalent to their id upon activation.
