mico/E 2.3.2.1

mico/E provides a CORBA implementation in Eiffel.
mico/E is a complete CORBA implementation in Eiffel that can be used in courses and software labs.
The intention of the mico/E project is to provide a freely available and fully compliant implementation of the CORBA 2.4 standard.
Main features:
- a compiler eifidl that translates the full range of the language IDL into stubs, skeletons and abstract interface classes in Eiffel based on the IDL/Eiffel mapping mentioned in the previous section.
- Dynamic Invocation Interface (DII)
- Dynamic Skeleton Interface (DSI)
- an Interface Repository (IR)
- an Implementation Repository (IMR)
- CORBA Services:
- Naming Service
- Event Service
- Trader Service
- Persistent State Service (PSS)
- IIOP as native protocol (ORB prepared for multiprotocol support)
- Support for using mico/E from within X11 applications (eGTK, VEGTK)
- Interceptors
- Portable Object Adapter (POA) and Basic Object Adapter (BOA)
- Object by Value
- DynAny
- locality contraint objects
- basic Corba Components (CCM) features
mico/E was developed using the compiler from ISE Release 4.5. However, the sources should be compilable by any compiler that
- supports the full language as defined in Eiffel: The Language by Bertrand Meyer (ETL) and
- supports the Kernel Library Standard ELKS released by NICE.
At the moment we have verified that mico/E works with:
- ISE 4.5 (or newer)
