CFOBJECT Type="CORBA"  
 
 

CFOBJECT allows you to call methods in CORBA objects. These CORBA objects must already have been defined and registered for use.

 
 
  Syntax  
 
<CFOBJECT TYPE="CORBA"
    CONTEXT="context"
    CLASS="file or naming service"
    NAME="text">

CONTEXT

Required. Specifies one of the following:

  • IOR -- ColdFusion uses the Interoperable Object Reference (IOR) to access the CORBA server.
  • NameService -- ColdFusion uses the naming service to access server.

CLASS

Required. Specifies different information, depending on the CONTEXT specification:

  • If CONTEXT is IOR -- Specifies the name of a file that contains the stringified version of the IOR. ColdFusion must be able to read this file at all times; it should be local to ColdFusion server or on the network in an open, accessible location.
  • If CONTEXT is NameService -- Specifies a period-delimited naming context for the naming service, such as Allaire.Department.Doc.empobject.

NAME

Required. Enter a name for the object. Your application uses this to reference the CORBA object's methods and attributes.

 
 
  Usage  
 

ColdFusion Enterprise version 4.0 supports CORBA through the Dynamic Invocation Interface (DII). To use CFOBJECT with CORBA objects, you need to know either the name of the file containing a stringified version of the IOR or the object's naming context in the naming service. You also need to know the object's attributes, method names and method signatures.

User-defined types (for example, structures) are not supported.
