[omniORB] Introduction to c/s programming using omniorbpy?

[Wolfgang Keller]

Hello,

is there something like an introduction manual/textbook/tutorial about
client/server programming using omniorbpy for non-computer scientists?

Especially concerning aspects like the integration with common GUI frameworks
such as wxpython, pyQt, pyGTK etc...

Alternatively/additionally, is there something like a "cookbook" example
application with well documented source code?

TIA,

Sincerely,

Wolfgang Keller

Wolfgang,

Duncan has some presentations available here, especially see the
Tic-Tac-Toe example in Python.

Douglas Schmidt's tutorials:

There isn't as much info on integration with common GUI frameworks.
With Qt at least, the main issue is configuring your development
environment to use libraries that are compatible for both tools. For
example, on Windows, using Visual C++ IDE, Qt libs/project settings
conflict with omniORB naming service, so you need to use mswsock.lib
instead of wsock32.lib, as this is obsolete according to the Microsoft
documentation. Naming service request will throw an exception
otherwise.
