[omniORB] plc and omniORB

[PurencoolGmail]

Hi

I am wondering does anyone know if I can use omniORB to access
programmable logic controllers. I know that you can
do it with the Corba implementation. As this is the C++ version of corba
for Linux is it possible?

Purencool,

If you have a PLC that can communicate using IIOP then it shouldn't
matter which ORB you use to communicate with it. That's kind of the
whole point of CORBA. You would just need to know how it publishes
its object references, what interfaces it supports in IDL, etc.

In fact, I would like to know what PLCs will do that!
