Inhaltsangabe

Client/Server computing is of great importance for corporations trying to improve their company's competitive edge with computer systems. CORBA stands for Common Object Request Broker Architecture. CORBA objects are chunks of reusable intelligence that can exist anywhere on a network. This work combines client/server computing with the architecture and methodologies of CORBA and object-oriented programming. It provides programs and technical know-how to implement those concepts and theories into workable everyday business applications. Topics covered include: objects and the Web; a CORBA client/server style guide; coding examples in C++, Java and Joe (network Java); products and methodologies like SOM3 and CORBA 2.0. Programs that can run on Windows 95, Windows NT and OS/2 Warp Software are included on the CD, which include: 10 functional client/server programs that will run on Windows 95, Windows NT and OS/2 Warp; C++ and Java Orbs; and applications written in Joe.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Java and CORBA are merging in cyberspace. Here′s your complete guide to navigating this previously uncharted territory.

Whether you′re a seasoned Java programmer, a distributed objects expert, or looking to be a little bit of both, Client/Server Programming with Java and CORBA gives you the programming know–how you need to combine these two technologies into workable client/server solutions for the Object Web.

Full of working code, tutorials, and design trade–offs, this one–of–a–kind book:

• Covers everything from simple ORBs to object activation
• Uses tutorials and a client/server benchmark to compare CORBA and its competitors including Java/RMI, Java/DCOM, Sockets, and HTTP/CGI
• Explains in detail Netscape′s ORB: VisiBroker for Java and shows you how to use Caffeine to write CORBA/Java applications without IDL
• Provides a Debit–Credit benchmark for JDBC databases used to compare 2–tier vs. 3–tier client/server solutions
• Includes a Web–based Club Med client/server application using CORBA, Java, JDBC, and applets
• Shows you how to use CORBA′s dynamic facilities such as callbacks, dynamic invocations, object introspection, and the interface repository
• Compares the performance of C++ ORBs with Java ORBs
• Includes a CD–ROM with over 15 Java–based client/server applications
