[omniORB] CORBA Streaming (bytes and chars) for Multimedia

CORBA is not really designed to tackle these problems, you are better off using CORBA to control a raw UDP stream of data. This is nice because it allows simple setup, teardown, and error handling through CORBA; but then you can separately choose the fastest method of transfer (probably udp in you case since TCP has quite a lot of overhead). 

I believe some implementation specific extensions are being designed by other ORBs to tackle these sorts of things, but nothing is standard (and unfortunately I don't remember the ORB name).

Cheers,
Kevin

Hallo all, 

 i have the next Problem. OK I want to stream audio,video and other multimedia 
 over corba, but corba is very slow in the case vs. basic udp or. tcp call. 
 Have Omniorb/CORBA functions for make the obect request faster and not in the 
 'oneway' mode. 


 Thanks to all for helping me.
