omniORBpy is an object request broker (ORB) for Python which implements specification 2.3 of the Common Object Request Broker Arhitecture (CORBA). omniORBpy is implemented as a Python extension module (written in C++) to provide bindings for omniORB3, a high performance C++ ORB. Some features of omniORB3: - Support for the Portable Object Adapter (POA) - Support for the Interoperable Naming Service (INS) - The Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP 1.0) is used as the native protocol. - The omniORB3 runtime is fully multithreaded. It uses native platform thread support encapsulated with a small class library, omnithread, to abstract away from differences in native thread APIs. - TypeCode and type Any are supported. - DynAny is supported (CORBA 2.2) - The Dynamic Invocation and Dynamic Skeleton interfaces are supported - A COS Naming Service, omniNames, is provided.
