About CORBA For Dummies
Product Description Create powerful applications in a variety of different programming environments -- including Visual C++, C++Builder, Visual J++, and more -- with CORBA, an all-in-one solution to cross-platform, distributed client/server programming. CORBA stands for Common Object Request Broker Architecture, central to the world of distributed heterogeneous object-oriented computing...and that's about as complicated and technical as CORBA For Dummies gets. CORBA makes it easier than ever to create software that runs as clients and servers and to run them on different machines connected by a network or the Internet. Here's a glimpse of the skills you can master with CORBA For Dummies: Working with ORBs (Object Request Brokers), the cornerstones of CORBA Creating a client and a server object, in both C++ and Java, that communicate via an ORB Developing Beans for CORBA Saving time by using CORBAservices Building a bridge between CORBA and DCOM applications Making the most of the new Visual development environment for all the latest CORBA and Java tools This essential survival guide to CORBA (which covers Version 3 as well as earlier versions) also comes with a CD-ROM packed with valuable software and programming tools, including the JavaBeans Development Kit, JDK 1.1.6, and demo versions of several Web evaluation tools, plus all the code you find inside the book.
