Provided by: Serebra Learning Corporation CIW Enterprise Specialist Part 1: CORBA Introduction, IDL, and ClientsCIW |
 |
This is the first course in a five part series that introduces the student to the CORBA framework the Interface Definition Language and the building of CORBA clients. Topics covered include the role of the Object Management Group and each of the fundamental elements of the CORBA architecture such as ORB IDL Object Adapters and CORBA Services the IDL. The IDL constructs - modules interfaces attributes and operations are covered. Material is presented on the nonclass data types and how they are mapped to Java how inheritance is represented in IDL specification of parameter-passing modes and the definition of exceptions using IDL. How to compile IDL files to generate client stubs and how to use these stubs to create client applications are also covered. The learner is directed in initializing the ORB using the Naming Service invoking Remote Methods and using Out and Inout parameters.

Audience
The intended audience for this course includes Technical Managers Database Administrators Application Developers Systems Analysts Software Engineers Other Software Designers and Project Managers. Candidates for this curriculum employ distributed application architecture technologies (including JavaBeans and CORBA) synthesize knowledge of system architecture design database design and connectivity create complete software solutions using the Java programming language and API. CIW Java Programming Object-Oriented Analysis and Design and Database Specialist certification is necessary or equivalent experience for those students not seeking Master CIW Enterprise Developer Certification. This course is mapped to the Master CIW Enterprise Developer Program and covers exam 1D0-442.
