OCI recently presented a proposal for using portions of ACE to accomplish this. It's not very technically hard to do this - the trick is to get the other ORB vendors to agree. Until they do, of course, you can simply use ACE as a portability layer within your client and servant implementations (it should work with any C++ ORB) and get the same effect. >> My view is mapping may not be standardaized suppose. but the names of I agree that it would be a good idea to standard this sort of stuff. >> stubs/skeleton files can be standardized so that we dont have to change >> the name everytime we change ORB at least? And anyway it doesnt affects >> any other behaviour right? Just a name change.
