Description : CORBA scripting with Tcl
Combat is a CORBA Object Request Broker that allows the
implementation of CORBA clients and servers in the Tcl programming
language.
.
On the client side, Combat is not only useful to easily test-drive
existing CORBA servers, including the ability for rapid prototyping
or to interactively interface with servers from a console, but makes
Tcl an exciting language for distributed programming. Also, Tk allows
to quickly develop attractive user interfaces accessing CORBA
services. Server-side scripting using [incr Tcl] classes also offers
a wide range of possibilities.
.
Combat is compatible with the CORBA 3.0 specification including the
IIOP protocol, and has been tested to interoperate with a wide range
of open-source and commercial ORBs, including MICO, TAO and
ORBexpress.
.
Combat is written in pure Tcl, allowing it to run on all platforms
supported by Tcl, which is a much wider range than supported by any
other ORB.
