AW: [omniORB] Java support

[Schmidmeier, Arno]

Hello,
if you are thinking of using JPython, Jython I expect you do not get =
far.

I use Jython and CORBA quite a lot.
What I do is, using any Java ORB which you think is reliable. And use =
the
idl2java binding, which uses=20
the java2jython binding.=20
In my case Jython on top of JacORB works fine.
JPython on top of OrbixWeb worked fine, too. Haven=C2=B4t tried =
OrbixWeb on
Jython jet.
