IDL types used by CORBA components must be registered in the EAServer repository. You can register IDL for CORBA components several ways, including:
Migrating CORBA components from a previous version of EAServer.
Deploying IDL modules with the Management Console. The Management Console displays IDL modules as folders beneath the top-level IDL folder.
Deploying IDL modules with the deploy command-line tool.
By placing IDL files in the Repository subdirectory of the server installation and restarting the application server. If the files contains no syntax errors, EAServer registers the types defined in it. If the file does contain syntax errors, the server will log the errors during start-up and the module’s declarations will not be added to the IDL repository.
EAServer also creates IDL for EJB and PowerBuilder components upon deployment, allowing interoperability between the CORBA and other component models.
