HTTP Data Communication Using HTTP Tunneling
4-3
Developing the CORBA Application
When HTTP tunneling is used by a CORBA application, the ordinary CORBA application can be used
intact. The application need not be recreated (including re-linkage) to use the HTTP tunneling function.
Constructing the HTTP Tunneling Environment (Constructing the
HTTP Gateway Environment)
To perform data communication by the CORBA application through HTTP, the HTTP gateway
environment must be constructed in the Web server.
The HTTP gateway environment enables the linkage to the following Web servers:
• Interstage HTTP Server
• InfoProvider Pro
• Internet Information Services
For the HTTP gateway environment, refer to HTTP Tunneling Setup.
Operating HTTP Tunneling
To use HTTP tunneling, specify parameters for using the HTTP tunneling and for specifying the HTTP
gateway at start of the client application.
This enables the CORBA application to perform data communication using HTTP between the client and
server.
For more information about the start parameter, refer to HTTP Tunneling Setup
