| Resolution | There are two ways of ensuring that the Orbix 6.x server can be invoked on by the C# client: 1. Modify the existing Orbix server itself to allow it to accept SOAP over HTTP calls. This is documented in the section: "Embedding Artix in a CORBA Service" in the "Artix for Corba Guide". 2. Configure a standalone Artix router. This router will accept SOAP over HTTP requests from the C# client and then forward them onto the CORBA server. It then takes the reply from the CORBA server and forwards it back to the C# client. This is also documented in the "Artix for Corba" guide in the section: "Configuring and Running a Standalone SOAP-to-CORBA Router". The main advantage of implementing option 1 is that it will have a better network performance than option 2. The reasons for this is that there won't be an additional process that calls have to routed through. The main advantage of option 2 is that the Orbix server itself doesn't have to be modified so its less invasive. |
