Hello Zopers, I'm currently working on a project, which requires to have access to a Corba ORB (currently Fnorb is used). Does anyone played a little bit with Corba, Python and Zope? My following Questions are not completely answered for me yet: a) How to handle the Corbaclient in a multi threaded environment. b) I think it's a bad Idea to use an Extension Method. Thus every Clientrequest leads to the same process of getting the ref and than getting an object handle throughout a factory. If I understand right ZClasses and Products are initialized at Zope server start time. Then I think is best to use them for doing the initial Job (getting references) and presenting them through a well defined Interface. c) How exactly is the life circle of: - Product Objects - External Method Objects - ZClasses Maybe you have some hints or links for me, or could something tell about your own experiences. Thanks for your responses Marco mailto:stipek@triplex.de
