CORBA support

The CORBA nodes in WebSphere® Message Broker support a set of types and operations in imported IDL files.

WebSphere Message Broker supports the CORBA 2.3.1 specification and uses the Java™ 6 JRE ORB, and is therefore compatible with any CORBA vendor that is compatible with the JRE ORB.

WebSphere Message Broker currently supports the following CORBA types and operations.
  • All primitive types, except bounded strings
  • Two-way operations with in, inout, and out parameters
  • User-defined exceptions
  • Enums
  • Modules
  • Sequences (sequences must have associated typedefs; anonymous sequences are not supported)
  • Structs
  • Typedefs
  • Comments
  • The following preprocessing tokens:
    • #ifndef
    • #endif
    • #define
    • #include
    Other preprocessing tokens are ignored.
When you import an IDL file, supported and unsupported operations are listed. You can import and deploy IDL files that contain unsupported types and operations, but if you try to call one of these unsupported operations, you see an error message.

You cannot import an IDL file that is not valid. During the importing process, if you select an IDL file that is not valid, you see an error message and cannot complete the wizard.

Abstract interfaces and interfaces that contain inheritance are not supported. IDL pragma directives are not supported, but you can include the following pragmas in your IDL file (these pragmas are ignored):
  • cpponly
  • ID
  • init
  • localonly
  • localonly abstract
  • Prefix
  • version
