HISTORY CORBA


HELLO EVERYONE , TODAY I WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU ALL ABOUT CORBA...
 BEFORE WE STUDY MORE DETAILS ABOUT CORBA , WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT CORBA'S HISTORY.


History of the CORBA Programming Models

1997

 Remote Method Invocation, or RMI, was introduced in JDK 
1.1. Initially, RMI was positioned as a natural outgrowth of Remote Procedure Calls (RPC), strictly for enabling calls to be made between Java objects in different virtual machines, and even on different physical machines.

1998
 Came JDK 

1.2. which introduced Java IDL, a Java API for interoperability and integration with CORBA. Java IDL included both a Java-based ORB, which supported IIOP, and the IDL-to-Java compiler, idltojava, for generating client-side stubs and server-side code skeletons. The ORB supports both the RMI over IIOP and Java IDL programming models.

1999 

The RMI over IIOP standard extension to the Java platform was introduced for JDK 1.1.6 and 1.2. Now that RMI over IIOP is integrated into J2SE version 1.3 and higher, the optional download has been end-of-lifed, but is still available from the archives.


The OMG finalized modifications of its IIOP specification so that it would support most of the JDK 1.1 functionality of RMI. RMI over IIOP was introduced as a standard extension to JDK 1.2. This enabled remote objects written in the Java programming language to be accessible from any language via IIOP.


J2SE, v.1.3 introduced a new, 100% Pure Java™, IDL-to-Java compiler, idlj, along with support for IDL abstract interfaces and value types. Also in v.1.3, RMI over IIOP is included in the JDK.


J2SE v.1.4, the current version, was introduced in 2001, and includes support for the Portable Object Adapter, Portable Interceptors, Interoperable Naming Service, GIOP 1.2, and Dynamic Anys. J2SE v.1.4 also includes an Object Request Broker Daemon (ORBD), which is used to enable clients to transparently locate and invoke persistent objects on servers in the CORBA environment, and servertool, which provides a command-line interface for application programmers to register, unregister, startup, and shutdown a persistent server. For more information on new features in J2SE v.1.4, see Changes in CORBA Features Between J2SE 1.3 and 1.4.
