java-programmer, CORBA simulator I'm looking for a CORBA simulator to help develop an application.
Does any of you have any experience to share or advice?

What does it mean to have a CORBA simulator, i.e., why can't you just
use a CORBA implementation? What would the difference be between a
CORBA simulator and a CORBA ORB?

Take care,

Doug

java-programmer >> CORBA simulator Doug,

CORBA simulator is to simulate a CORBA based application, not the CORBA
itself.
In many scenarios where you do not have a real server or can't afford to
give every
developer a real server, you can use a simulator to simulate the
application.

In my experience it is really quick and easy to code up test
servers in Python using omniORBpy. You can find it at omniorb.sf.net.

java-programmer >> CORBA simulator Try a data-file-driven corba simulator called CAST (corba application
simulator and regression/ load tester) at http://www.eaibridge.com/cast.html
You can configure CAST as a router between real client and server to save
all request and response messages in XML files. CAST then can simulate a
server or client based on the captured data.... If you do not have a real
server yet, CAST has an IDL driven GUI wizard that can generate the data
template files... It really saves you time to do scripting (most of them is
probably to generate fake data)...
