They implemented their core applications in Ada, acting as CORBA servers and the GUI's in Java applets, acting as CORBA clients. The two ORB's were from different vendors, on different operating systems and they reported that the whole system went fine. I find that combination quite elegant. It isolates both worlds using CORBA as a "glue" which has standardized bindings (or should I say "mappings") in both languages. By the way, I found that CORBA is quite attractive in Ada 95 and quite easy to use (although I did not experienced it yet). I briefly used CORBA V1 in 1995/96 but with the C mappings and all I remember is a horrible mess. Another "C vs Ada" argument. ________________________________________________________ Thierry Lelegard, Paris, France E-mail: lelegard@club-internet.fr
