1 CORBA objects differ from typical programming language objects in these ways:
  • CORBA objects can be located anywhere on a network.
  • CORBA objects (like Java objects) can run on any platform.
  • CORBA objects can be written in any of several languages.
2 CORBA object developers need know nothing of where their clients will be, what hardware or OS they will run on, or what language they will be written in.
3 CORBA objects approach universal accessibility.
