[MWy] Middleware labs assignment 2: Mar 24 10:40

[Vlastimil Babka]

Good afternoon,

the second lab class will be held this Wednesday for the group 'Středa 
liché týdny' as stated in the subject and the other groups will follow 
according to the schedule on the web of the course.

The topic will be CORBA in C++. We therefore recommend to practice CORBA
IDL, mapping from IDL to the C++ language, C++ programming in general 
and (for those not fluent in Linux programming) the basic usage of GCC, 
make etc.

The implementation that we will use is omniORB 4.1.4. The following URL 
contains the binary of omniORB for Linux/x86 and is intended for 
unpacking into home directory - there is no need to install the binary 
system-wide. We will use this binary also in the lab.

http://dsrg.mff.cuni.cz/~ceres/sch/mwy/download/omniORB-4.1.4-bin.tar.gz

Older version and build is available in case you have older libraries:
