Using the CORBA Module

The CORBA module generates most of the Java source code you need for CORBA client and server programs. Because this is a complex process, the procedures you follow to create CORBA programs are outlined below:

  1. Before generating any code, complete the installation and setup procedures.

    (See CORBA Module Setup)

  2. Obtain or write the IDL source file that defines the interfaces for your CORBA programs.

    If you are using the CORBA templates to generate code, generate your IDL file first.

  3. Decide which Java source files you need generated: client-side, server-side, or both.
  4. Use either the CORBA wizard or the CORBA templates to generate the files.
  5. Add the code that completes the generated classes:
  6. Compile the IDL file.
  7. Compile, run, and test your programs.
