What are the limitations of using CORBA in an applet/browser?
Created May 4, 2012
Benoit Xhenseval Standard applets limitations, i.e. your applet can only communicate with the server it came from.
- If your CORBA server runs along your web server, no problem!
- If your CORBA server runs on another box, you will need a "gateway" along your web server. It will accept the IIOP request and redirect it to the right CORBA server. Currently available from both
- Iona http://www.iona.com for OrbixWeb and
- Inprise http://www.inprise.com/visibroker/ for VisiBroker (IIOP Gateway).
