RE: java interface to gca stuff?

["Mark Pollack" <markp@bnl.gov>]

Hi,

Our online folks are also using Java for GUI interfaces
with CORBA. They are using Orbix web classes though.  
Some pictures are at /phenix/workarea/markp/gc/gui
on the rcf cluster.

 << File: Douglas Olson.vcf >> Hi gcdev folks,

I talked with the STAR online software folks (Nathan Stone in particular)
about the work they have been doing using a Java GUI interface
communicating with Orbix CORBA servers.  It looks to me
like a good way to put together an administrative interface
to the storage manager stuff as well as a user GUI for
the query builder.
They have been using JDK1.2beta3 (beta4 is now out)
which includes the org.omg.CORBA package for the CORBA connection.
There is an idl2java program which generates the necessary
java code from the CORBA idl.
If some of you have some time and can look into it a bit
I would like to hear what you think.
