Message: [QUOTE="Dietmar Kuehl, post: 1485990"] No, it did not: it originated in the C world. One stated goal of the C++ binding for CORBA was some form of compatibility to C. Although I accept that the motives were well-intended, the resulting C++ binding is a pain in the ass (using a much weaker term than I would have used in my native language). This view can, of course, be attributed to ignorance about the finer points of the C++ binding on my side. That said, any realization of W3C's DOM in C++ using any other approach than a liberal interpretation of their model will be useless already. Bolting the CORBA C++ on top of this will definitely not improve the situation - unless, of course, your goal is the creation of the slowest and hardest to use [correctly] XML processor so far.
