In EAServer, CORBA packages are the unit of deployment for CORBA and PowerBuilder components. A CORBA package allows you to group related components together in the same deployment or export configuration. Packages also provide a means to configure security constraints for related components. You can configure role-based authorization on the package to limit access to all components in the package.
You can create and configure CORBA packages several ways, including:
Using the Management Console
Using configuration scripts
Migrating CORBA and PowerBuilder components from a previous version of EAServer
By deploying PowerBuilder components from the PowerBuilder IDE
The use of the Management Console and configuration scripts are described in this chapter. For information on migrating components, see the Migration Guide. For information on deploying from PowerBuilder, see the PowerBuilder documentation or online help.
