Hi Damian and all
I have a question about that. Ok, I haven't yet looked at JIntegra for a while
but I will do it again soon.
AFAIK JIntegra is a pure JAVA COM-client or better a possibility to access COM
from any JVM, regardless where this JVM is running. (Please correct me if I am wrong)
I did not know than JIntegra is also a bridge between EJB and COM.
So I would like to know what this bridging functionality really does. Because IMO
you have the fact that you have to deal with different protocols (COM and IIOP,SOAP or
whatever the EJB server is running on. Or does JIntegra provide a bridge between RMI
and COM ?
COM is protocol oriented and RMI API-oriented. This part of the list discussion never
ends ;-)
So I would like to know what kind of integration JIntegra really offers. Do you offer
a bridge
between a protocol (COM) and a java API (RMI) and whatever RMI is running on,
or do you bridge COM and another protocol or several protocols like IIOP,SOAP, ... ?
Is it a both-way bridge between COM and EJB or is it only possible to have COM clients
?
What kind of standard do you follow for this bridging. AFAIK there is a COM/CORBA
mapping
standard but not a COM/EJB mapping standard.
Thanks for your information
Martin
