CORBA/IIOP Communications

IDL-to-Java mappingObjects by value over CORBA

Object serialization capabilities limited to Javaenvironment

OMG Reference Model Architecture (OMA)

Current and Next Generation OMASee http://www.omg.org/gettingstarted/specintro.htm#OMASee http://www.objs.com/staging/OMG-OMA-NG.html

8

Object Services (CORBAservices)

Domain-independent interfaces used by manydistributed object programsProvide basic functionality for distributed objectapplicationsNaming Service: allows clients to find objects basedon namesTrading Service: allows clients to find objects basedon their propertiesOther services: persistence, lifecycle management,security, transactions, event notification, etc.

5

9

Common Facilities (Horizontal CORBAfacilities)Horizontally-oriented interfaces (useful across businessdomains)Oriented towards end-user applications (e.g., userinterface, information mgmt, system mgmt, task mgmt)E.g.: Distributed Document Component Facility (DDCF)

Compound document facility based on OpenDocAllows for presentation and interchange of objectsbased on a document model (e.g., linking ofspreadsheet object into a report document)

Printing, Secure Time, Internationalization, and MobileAgent Facilities

10

Information Management Horizontal Facility

6

11

Domain Interfaces (Vertical CORBAfacilities)

Role similar to Object Services and CommonFacilitiesOriented towards specific application domainsE.g., Product Data Management (PDM) Enablers forthe manufacturing domainOther possibilities in the telecommunications,medical, and financial domains

12

Application Interfaces

Custom interfaces developed for a given applicationNot standardizedMight become candidates for future OMGstandardization

Win32 Services

Win32 executable that satisfy several propertiesLifetime is controlled by the Service Control Mgr (SCM)

Service is registered with SCM, and understands and obeysSCM commands

Service has its own login session or shares one withanother service

Service runs as a user or local system and abides to applicablesecurity

Service implements a set of service-specific functions:Starting up, message handler, communication back to SCM

Summary

OMG, Sun, and Microsoft DOC platforms all share the OMAarchitectureOMG’s OMA provides the most comprehensive and detailed setof specifications for CORBAfacilities, and CORBAservicesJavaSoft has focused mostly on OMA services as part of theJ2SE, J2EE, and J2ME architecturesMicrosoft provides platform specific support for services and anintegrated set of horizontal and vertical facilities bundled withthe OSAll platforms support web-enabling which is being extendedwith trading capabilities via Web Services

Assignment #3b:Modify ongoing version of Java-based XML Tree Viewerapplication to operate as a client-server application usingCORBA. Both a “rich” Java client and an applet should beprovided on the client side. The server component should beimplemented using VisiBroker 4.5 for Java.Implement a modified version using JavaIDL and RMI-IIOP
