(1) In VAJ you can't enhance system packages such as org.omg.CORBA.*
Weblogic needs some classes that are not in the VAJ system CORBA package. So
CORBA integration doesn't work.
(2) weblogic uses a special trick to start the server. The class-path for
starting the server (i.e. the weblogic boot classpath) is not the same as
the normal weblogic classpath. Unfortunately there are two different
packages with the same name (the "weblogic" package); one version for
booting, one version for the server (SERVERCLASSPATH). You cannot have two
different packages with the same name in VAJ. Theoretically you can get the
stuff to run (I did it a while ago) but then you can't import the lot of
weblogic system classes and have to play with classpaths etc.
(3) Some weblogic graphical tools use a different version of swing than the
swing in VisualAge. So they cannot be run inside the VAJ environment.
(4) You might use weblogic + some additional tools (such as for instance
Javlin) and those tools are incompatible with VAJ because of some native
code stuff (such as for instance is the case with Javlin).
