Compatibility of CORBA implementations

[Martin B.]

Hi there!

I found this SO question:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2287365/compatibility-of-corba-implementations

++ quote ++
As far as I know there were problems with incompatible CORBA
implementations in the past resulting from different interpretations of
the specification. How is the situation today? Can I expect two
different implementations to interact without problems?
++ /quote ++

quite nice and simple. (Simplistic?)

It has been asked quite a while back, but I think it still poses a valid
question.

cheers,
Martin

Hi,

CORBA vendors have worked hard in the past to improve compatibility.
ORBs will community with each order but there could always be corner
cases that cause problems, something you just would have to test.

Hi,

I just found this interesting because all CORBA exposure I had in the
last few years was to recent omniORB/C++ versions (and a little bit of
Java servers). So I really couldn't tell if there are any *significant*,
*known* problems *today* as I'm not really using different ORBs.

Since you guys at Remedy probably would be more exposed to this and you
didn't mention any specifics, I guess it's not really an issue today.

cheers,
Martin
