Key Benefits:

Full Ada 95 implementation of OMG CORBA 2.6
Very fast, reliable and efficient
Available for native and cross-development platforms
One of the fastest ORBs, and probably the fastest to transmit CORBA::Any.

Product Information:

OrbAda main characteristics

CORBA 2.6 compliant
Fully implemented in Ada95 (no C or C++ calls inside)

Fast and efficient
Multi-threaded:

the ORB dedicates one task for the ios with each client or service, the client and service libraries are designed to handle parallel requests or replies.

memory safe:

variable size data types are implemented through controlled types in order to minimize memory allocation. Memory is automatically put in free lists when data are no longer referenced, allowing fast re-allocation and reduced memory fragmentation.

portable: the same Ada95 specifications are implemented on each environment.
Only a few lines of code are system dependent (the low level io primitives).
Each ORB embeds a half-bridge to simplify the interoperability with other ORBs
(using IIOP)

Product Delivery:

the ORB (Object Request Broker),
the Interface Repository,
the Naming Service,
the Basic Object Adapter,
the client-side and service-side Ada95 libraries,
the IDL to Ada95 compiler,
a debug tool.

Licence Information:

What you get with standard delivery is a development licence. This includes an OrbAda ORB runtime license for your development platform. There is no runtime fee for your own code developed with OrbAda. Depending on your defined topology for your object network, you may need additional ORB licenses.
