BOA and POA

[Bruno Baguette]

Hello,

I'm a deaf belgian student and i have some question about BOA and POA.

Is the POA (Portable Object Adapter) a replacement of the BOA (Basic Object
Adapter) ? Or is the POA is a layer based on the BOA ?

Thanks in advance ! ;-)

Hi Bruno,

>> Adapter) ?

Yes. Please see

http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/PDF/C++-report-col13.pdf
http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/PDF/C++-report-col14.pdf

for series of C++ Report columns that Steve Vinoski and I wrote about
the POA.

>> Or is the POA is a layer based on the BOA ?

No, the POA has completely replaced the BOA (Bad Object Adapter) as of
CORBA 2.2.

Take care,

Doug
