Harness the power of design patterns to build CORBA-based applications CORBA Design Patterns provides detailed guidance in the construction of distributed applications based on OMG's CORBA. Founded on a philosophy of designing for change, the design patterns provide essential, proven guidance in lowering the risk of developing software in a distributed environment. The authors introduce you to the essential principles of CORBA and design patterns. They provide a framework for design patterns in software design and show examples for designing OMG IDL interfaces and integrating legacy and Internet applications. On the CD-ROM you'll find: * IDL for all available CORBA and CORBA services * All the source code examples from the book * Animated demonstrations You'll get: * Clear, step-by-step guidance on how to architect real-world designs using the OMG interface definition language (IDL) * A complete design pattern catalog offering expert solutions for designing and building distributed object-oriented systems * Step-by-step examples that demonstrate how to use all the techniques described to build both legacy and Internet applications Visit our Web site at: http://www.wiley.com/compbooks/
