Note that Owen has just released version 0.03 of his ILU/Perl work:
Date: Wed, 28 Jan 1998 22:04:08 PST
From: Owen Taylor <owt1 at cornell.edu>
Subject: ILU/Perl 0.03
To: ilu at parc.xerox.COM, cope at lunatech.COM
I've put version 0.03 of my ILU/Perl runtime at:
http://www.msc.cornell.edu/~otaylor/ilu/
Changes since 0.02:
- COBRA compatibility classes now work
- Various bugfixes
- For the truly adventurous, there is some experimental code
to do dynamic invocation using an external Interface Repository.
(Tested with the IR from MICO)
This allows things like:
$account = ILU->ObjectOfSBH('ILU::CORBA_Object', $ior);
$account->deposit( 100 );
$account->withdraw( 25 );
print "Balance is ".$account->balance."\n";
without knowing anything about the Account class in advance.
Regards,
Owen Taylor
As for ILU being `complex and powerful', it should build simply on most
UNIX platforms, and we distribute Win32 binaries for that platform. I've
recently put the ILU tutorials on-line from our Web page; you might want
to read through one of them, and see what you think. The Web page is
at ftp://ftp.parc.xerox.com/pub/ilu/ilu.html.
