Java and CORBA

1999-03-26 Thread rsheldon


This is really just an info message, as I saw a number of people
talking about CORBA and Java.

I've just started to play around with some CORBA stuff in Java/C++. I
was looking around for a nice free ORB, and came across ORBacus (used
to be OmniBroker). It's free for non-commerical use, which is great if
you're trying to learn about it.

It provides full C++ and Java support, and source code for both is
available (although you can just download the .jar files if you
want). There seems to be pretty good documentation as well.

I downloaded the sources for both java and C++, and had no problems
compiling and installing them (I'm running SuSE 6.0 with a 2.0.26
Kernel).

If you're interested then check out the web site at 

http://www.orbacus.com/ob/

I think it's really nice to see a commercial company doing this sort
of thing - hope to see more!

RE: CLASSPATH problem

Ryuji,

I was having the same problem using bash last night (I'm new to bash
and Linux, having used tcsh on Solaris at work).

I found that changes I made to the $HOME/.bash_profile and /etc/bashrc 
weren't being read automatically. I had to manually source them
(e.g. . $HOME/.bash_profile), or run "bash --login" to get a new bash
which reads the profiles.

I don't remember having this problem with tcsh, so I'm not sure if
it's a linux/bash thing, or if I'm missing something obvious. 

... a few minutes later...

I just had word with some bash users, and they said that bash only
reads the $HOME/.bashrc file by default, so you could try renaming
.bash_profile to .bashrc.

I haven't had a chance to try this out yet, so I can't verify that it
works, but try it out.

Craig,

>From what I know (and just read) about ORBit, it only supports C
bindings at the moment - but I could be wrong. I read this at the
official ORBit home page

http://www.labs.redhat.com/orbit/

I'm sure that there's somebody out there working on other bindings,
but I don't know what the current status is.
