Bonobo Activation Server(1)                        Bonobo Activation Server(1)



NAME
       bonobo-activation-server - GNOME component tracker

DESCRIPTION
       This application tracks information about installed components and bro-
       kers components, in conjunction with  its  client  library;  libbonobo-
       activation.

       It     reads     the     component     descriptions     from     ${pre-
       fix}/lib/bonobo/servers/*.server.  These files provide an XML  descrip-
       tion  of a components capabilities which can be queried and manipulated
       by clients from the client library.

       Bonobo-activation-server also ensures that the minimum neccessary  num-
       ber of servers for your display setup are running.

       Bonobo-activation-server  executes  all components with the environment
       inherited from the first process to start the server.  In  addition  to
       using  your  prefix, it will examine the BONOBO_ACTIVATION_PATH and the
       GNOME2_PATH environment variables to find .server files.

       In  addition  it  examines  an  XML  configuration   file   in   ${pre-
       fix}/etc/bonobo-activation/bonobo-activation-config.xml
