Do we want to be Java5 compatible? Yes, I understand that Yoko is CORBA 2.4 while Java5 and even 6 are CORBA 2.3. This means that it is impossible to create fully compatible version since it will require downgrading Yoko and this is not a choice.
From the other hand we can try to achieve backward compatibility and
let applications designed for Java5 CORBA work with Yoko. I believe that it would be good for Yoko. And yes, it is absolutely required for Harmony :) I've attached html with the latest JAPI results. Current JAPI score is 84.68%. The main problems for now is missing functionality: 2 packages, 21 classes, 12 interfaces, 72 methods. Is it possible to implement all this things? Some of the classes seems to be renamed in Yoko. For example there is org.omg.DynamicAny._DynAnyStub class in Java5 and org.omg.DynamicAny.DynAnyStub in Yoko. Will it be OK to rename such classes? Or it will be better to create a wrapper? Another example of incompatibility: method org.omg.CORBA.LocalObject._get_interface(): type org.omg.CORBA.Object in jdk15.org.omg, but type org.omg.CORBA.InterfaceDef in harmony.org.omg InterfaceDef is subinterface of org.omg.CORBA.Object. Will it be OK to change the return type in Yoko? It will probably require some code refactoring... And so on... Thoughts? Objections? SY, Alexey
