Hi there
Has anyone ever used Borland C++ Builder 5.0 to build
multi-tiered database applications, using CORBA (VisiBroker)
for data exchange between client and server.
I want to use all (or at least most of) the comfortable
C++Builder features for database access (data-aware controls,
DataSource, DataSets, ...).
I know MIDAS provides this, but as far as I know only for
DCOM, WinSocket or http based communication.
How can I integrate CORBA communication, without loosing most
of the C++Builder benefits ?
The motivation for CORBA is to be platform independent
with the server applications.

Thanks

Sigrid

                                Look in the examples\corba\midas
directory. There is an example program.

                                TCorbaConnection relies on Delphi's
inferior corba implementation. The
                                corba implementation in BCB is more
pure, but that also means no
                                TCorbaConnetion.

Hi,
I just created CORBA server in BCB 5 as Windows application using VCL
classes.
I can use all the features for connection to databases (BDE,
InterBaseExpress, etc.)
But I am not using DataAware controls, I use basic widgets in client windows
application.
I have a great control of CORBA communication between client and server.
Another way is to try MIDAS. I try it only using DCOM, where it is simple
- only "mouse" programming using DataAware controls.

I am also looking for someone with experience with MIDAS over CORBA.
Is it working well or is it better to write own "MIDAS" ?

Regards,

Jan Karpisek
