C++ Programming with CORBA(r)

Designed for C++ programmers, this text helps you code interoperable applications using C++ and the CORBA framework. The authors assume you know C++ and the basics of the CORBA architecture, but they give you a refresher on C++ ORBs, IDL to C++ mapping and building applications for distributed environments.From the PublisherNever before have C++ programmers been able to implement fully portable C++/CORBA code. Now, learn how to write code independent of a specific C++ ORB using only CORBA compliant features, including the Portable Object Adapter. You'll quickly master the skills you need to create powerful, C++-based business applications that interact with objects located anywhere on a network or the Internet, regardless of differences in operating systems or languages. This guide provides an introduction to CORBA, the C++ mapping, and the C++ mapping for the Portable Object Adapter (POA).

Giving C++ programmers the skills to succeed in today's CORBA-driven enterprise computing environment. Though a C++-to-CORBA interface does exist, no books on CORBA provide more than a spattering of examples in C++-until now. This guide satisfies the legions of C++ programmers craving the knowledge to enhance their programming skills. After concise overviews of CORBA and C++ object request brokers (ORBs), readers will learn how to synthesize it all and build complete C++ applications. Best of all, the authors help programmers demystify the complex new C++ language binding technology, a vital step in mastering this new platform. Offering industrial strength techniques for programming pros, this nuts-and-bolts guide includes plenty of real-world business examples with complete code for working applications. Companion Web site includes ready-to-run source code examples and sample ORBs.
