Implementing CORBA applications

Why and when to perform this task

WebSphere CORBA support can be divided into two categories:

WebSphere to WebSphere CORBA support
Enables creation of CORBA client and server applications within the WebSphere Application Server environment. You can use the CORBA C++ SDK to build a lightweight WebSphere CORBA server to use with new or existing C and C++ programs. You also can use the SDK to build a WebSphere CORBA C++ client to use with a WebSphere EJB server or WebSphere CORBA C++ server.
WebSphere to other ORB support
Enables other applications that are based on CORBA Object Request Brokers (ORBs) to interoperate with WebSphere Application Server. This enables these applications to leverage WebSphere-supported open technologies, such as Java ServerPages, XML, Java Servlets, and enterprise beans.

This documentation focuses on WebSphere to WebSphere, the first category of CORBA support, which encompasses the following scenarios:

WebSphere CORBA C++ client to a WebSphere EJB server
Enables a CORBA C++ client to access enterprise beans hosted by a WebSphere EJB server. For more information, see CORBA client to WebSphere EJB server.
WebSphere CORBA C++ client to a WebSphere CORBA C++ server
Enables a WebSphere CORBA C++ client to access a CORBA server implementation object hosted by a C++ CORBA server within the WebSphere Application Server environment. This CORBA support provides the basic CORBA building blocks to create CORBA C++ client and server applications within WebSphere Application Server.

In implementing CORBA applications, refer to the following topics:
