Installing Visibroker for CORBA connections
To install Visibroker for CORBA connections:
1.
Install Visibroker on the CORBA server side.
For more information, see the Borland Visibroker documentation.
2.
Add the vbjorb.jar file to the ColdFusion MX 7 classpath, as follows:
a
In the ColdFusion MX Administrator, select Server Settings > Java and JVM. When using
the J2EE configuration, you add the vbjorb.jar file to the J2EE application server classpath,
using the server-specific method.
b
On the Java and JVM Settings page, in the Class Path text box, enter the path to your
vbjorb.jar file (for example, C:\Inprise\vbroker\lib\vbjorb.jar). If you are using JVM version
1.4 or later, you must add
-Xbootclasspath/a:"C:/Inprise/vbroker/lib/vbjorb.jar"
, to the JVM Args text
box.
You only need the JAR file on the computer that is running ColdFusion MX 7; you do not
need the full Visibroker installation.
c
Click Submit Changes.
3.
Configure a Visibroker connector in ColdFusion MX 7, as follows:
a
In the ColdFusion MX Administrator, select Extensions > CORBA Connectors.
b
In the CORBA Connectors page, click Register CORBA Connector.
c
In the CORBA Connector page, enter information for the connector.
The following is an example of a correctly configured connector:
The ORB Property File points to a Java properties file that contains the correct ORB
settings for Visibroker.
The contents of the vbjorb.properties file look like the following:
org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass=com.inprise.vbroker.orb.ORB
org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass=com.inprise.vbroker.orb.ORB
SVCnameroot=namingroot
d
When you finish editing the page, click Submit.
The CORBA Connectors page appears.
e
Select the radio button to the left of your new CORBA connector and click Select ORB
Connector.
This sets the new connector to be the default.
