Answer 1

I suggest trying the RMI IIOP newsgroup. I do not quite understand your
question.

Hi Michael,
Is it allowed to use your own multi-threaded library from within WLS ?Note that
the WLS Beans do not contain the threads, the threading part is in somelibrary
which the WLS Beans communicates with. Can the Helper classes which arepackaged
with the WLS Beans span threads of their own ?
Most importantly, is it allowed to use some vendor's ORB (for exampleOrbixweb)
within WLS because the thread created by the ORB might interfere with WLS
threads ??

RMI IIOP newsgroup. The developers who write the code for this feature
actually hang out over there.

1) We must support both C++ and Java clients that will be requesting
services from our EJBs running in WLS. The clients are internal appsrunning
in different companies and we would prefer to avoid requiring our
clients
to
use an ORB by a specific vendor. At the same time we do not want to
deal
with potential problems related to the implementation differences by
different ORB vendors. What would be the best way to handle thissituation?
2) WLS documentation has the following paragraph:
"WebLogic RMI over IIOP is the framework for EJB-to-CORBA mapping
support.
Currently, however, a standard for passing user identity -- requiredto
implement EJB-to-CORBA mapping -- does not exist and the requirementfor
transaction propagation from the client is in question. While RMI overIIOP
does allow CORBA clients to access EJBeans, the following services
will
not
be available:
EJB transaction services
EJB security services"
Does this mean that:
2.1) CORBA client initiated transactions will not be supported,
everything else will work
2.2) None of the EJB security services will be available in EJB
method
called by a CORBA client (i.e. getCallerPrincipal() andisCallerInRole()
will fail)
Thanks in advance
