CORBA is a distributed component architecture defined by the Object Management Group (OMG). EAServer supports many CORBA technologies, including:
The Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP) for client-server component invocations.
CORBA Interface Definition Language (IDL), for defining component interfaces and datatypes used in interfaces.
Business component models for C++, PowerBuilder, and Java, based on the CORBA specifications.
Standard CORBA APIs, such as the CosNaming API for naming services.
For information on the CORBA architecture, see the specifications available at the OMG Web site.
