Foil 19 CORBA Trader - Overview II

From Master Set of Foils for 1996 Session of CPS615 NHSE Review Argonne -- September 30 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Wojtek Furmanski


1 CORBA Trading is most useful for genuine distributed object based services but it can be also naturally adapted to non-object-oriented software, e.g. C libraries, by building suitable object wrappers.
  • Wrappers can be automated to some extent
2 Such wrappers require additional effort from the software publisher side but it will pay off in the long run.
3 CORBA will enable object orientation in terms of a thin veneer wrapper around the non-object legacy software.
  • We expect tremendous community activity from this movement to object software base
