Is possible to call EJB from M$ lanauages

[John Fabiani]

Hi,
I'd like to be able to call EJB (in JBoss J2EE) from M$ langauges i.e VB or
VFP. Does anyone know if that's possible and where I might find
information (maybe a code example) on the net?

You can access an EJB server via IIOP (CORBA protocol).
Here's an article

But I'm not sure whether JBoss also implements this option.

There was a bridge "J2EE CAS" on Suns pages previous that could be used for
that purpose, but it seems like it has been discontinued.

But there exists several other bridges, that should work, such as J-Integra
from Linar:

Another approach is to simply use a CORBA-implementation, i.e.:

AFAIK, recent versions oj JBoss support SOAP and .net as invocation
layer - have a look at www.jboss.org. Admittedly, i havent tried this
myself.....
