'Use IIOP' is certainly the intent of the standard and if you just want to
integrate CORBA clients, then this is reasonable.  But what does that mean
to a Windows developer who knows nothing about EJB, IIOP, J2EE, etc.  Some
vendors have taken the approach of providing 'specialized' access from
non-Java clients to EJBs.  For example, if you use Unify eWave Engine, it
automatically builds development-time information to be used by a Windows
developer for integration using COM.  Using a wizard-based approach, it
builds a .tlb, installation scripts for setting up the registry, security
settings for DCOM (8-|), as well as a .DLL that does the COM/EJB bridging at
runtime.  This allows any COM-enabled application (VB, Delphi, VC++, ASP,
etc.) to transparently utilize any EJB components (replicated or
non-replicated) deployed on the network.
