Re: Blessed Objects and RPC

Objects are usually passed around with some sort of IDL (Interface Definition Language) describing their public interface. The SOAP search seems to have at least some modules which appear to address that. You might also check CORBA to see what's available there.

I am actually not to sure if there is a full featured Perl ORB (CORBA) around - actually I was looking for one a year ago ... Your design really depends what you are planing to do. Loose coupling of 2 processes (lightwight) SOAP might not be the worst idea (well, you can serialize the object on you own and send it via 'text message' or as attachment ...). If you are going to start with CORBA (which definitly is a good thing) take your time ;) Best regards Hartwig	[reply]
