IIOP.Net(CORBA)

IIOP.NET (http://iiop-net.sourceforge.net/) ------------------------------------------- IIOP.NET allows a seamless interoperation between .NET, CORBA and J2EE distributed objects. This is done by incorporating CORBA/IIOP support into .NET, leveraging the remoting framework. IIOP.NET is released under the LGPL license. IIOP.NET is provided and supported by ELCA Informatique SA (http://www.elca.ch/) OVERVIEW -------- This project contains: IIOPChannel: a channel for the .NET framework, which performs serialization and deserialization of CLS objects for the CORBA protocol CLSToIDLGenerator: a tool for generating the OMG IDL definition for a CLS type; takes the assembly as parameter IDLToCLSCompiler: a tool for generating CLS metadata for OMG IDL definitions. Examples: various examples showing the use of IIOP.NET IntegrationTests: test files for IIOP.NET REQUIREMENTS ------------ IIOP.NET requires Microsoft's .NET Framework 1.0 or 1.1 and a a C# compiler. INSTALLATION ------------ To compile the tutorials, you must copy the files "ir.idl" and "orb.idl" in the ./IDL directory before compiling the tutorials. You will find these two files as part of your Java SDK in the %JAVA_HOME%\lib directory. To compile some part of the project, the makefile requires some environment variables to be set: WAS_HOME WebSphere 5 application server path used by Examples\EBJChatRoom\WebSphere_5\ and the IntegrationTests (set if installed) JBOSS_HOME JBoss 3.2.1 application server path used by Examples\EBJChatRoom\JBoss3.2.1\ and the IntegrationTests (set if installed) MICO_HOME Mico 2.3.10, >= patch 103 directory used by IntegrationTests (set if installed) NUNITV2_HOME NUnit V2 path used by IIOPChannel unit tests and for the IntegrationTests (required for tests) JUNIT_HOME JUnit path used by the IntegrationTests (required for tests) BUILDING IIOP.NET ----------------- To build IIOP.NET use nmake or nmake build This command will recursively build the IIOPChannel, the CLSToIDLGenerator, the IDLToCLSCompiler, and all the examples. To build only the channel and compiler, use nmake build-base To remove the binaries generated by the build, use nmake clean DISCLAIMER ---------- Copyright 2003 by ELCA Informatique SA Av. de la Harpe 22-24, 1000 Lausanne 13, Switzerland http://www.elca.ch/ All rights reserved.
