JBOSS Fuse Documentation for CXF -CORBA Transport

[leofprince]

We are using JBOSS FUSE 6.0.0 and program it using Apache Camel routes.A new requirement has come to Proxy a CORBA service as below:

System 1 ---> sends CORBA Request to--> JBOSS Fuse

JBOSS FuseFuse -->Transforms to SOAP HTTP--> System 2

System2 -->Responds in SOAP HTTP---> JBOSS Fuse

JBOSS Fuse -->Converts SOAP to CORBA --> System 1

Just needed your advise ,does anybody tried to use JBOSS Fuse/ Apache Camel as a CORBA Service consumer ?

Came to know Apache CXF supports CORBA Transport , can we try to implement the usecase in CXF CORBA Transport ?

Also Please help in providing link to JBOSS Fuse Documentation for CXF -CORBA Transport .

Thanks!

Yes, this should be possible. CXF supports the CORBA IIOP transport.

Unfortunately the JBoss Fuse 6.0 guide "Using the Web Services Bindings and Transport" does not cover the CORBA IIOP transport. So I doubt any JBoss Fuse documentation covers this transport. 

However there should be documentation on using the IIOP transport on http://cxf.apache.org.

I also found this page referencing example CXF projects, including CORBA: http://cxf.apache.org/docs/sample-projects.html

The main idea is to configure the CORBA binding in your CXF wsdl contract. There are tools like idl2wsdl that can help.

In my personal toolbox I also have a simple Camel demo that uses CXF to call an external CORBA server. I can send it to you separately via email if you are interested.
