Show all / Hide all

WebORB 2.0 Beta 2 - 08.25.05

The Beta 2 release delivers additional stability to the 2.0 version of the product. The release contains the following fixes and modifications:

• Safari 2.0 support. The Rich Client System has been fixed to work on Safari. All AJAX examples now work on all major browsers.
• Added QuickStart guide for ColdFusion Components (CFCs) to the user guide.
• Date and array serialization for the AJAX clients has been fixed
• Serialization of circular object references in returned complex types has been fixed.
• Serialization of returned singleton objects has been fixed.
• Server-side exceptions can now contain a fault code delivered to Flash Remoting clients. Use weborb.exceptions.ServiceException to propagate exception information to the client side.

WebORB 2.0 Beta 1 - 08.01.05

We extended the scope of supported rich client environments from Flash to JavaScript/AJAX. To reflect the addition of new type of clients the product's new name is WebORB. Support for Flash Remoting remains the same. All the existing and new features equally apply to both types of clients (AJAX and Flash Remoting). The Beta1 release delivers the following new features and bug fixes:

• Multi-protocol support. WebORB architecture allows pluggable protocol handlers. There are 2 built-in implementations: WOLF (Web Object Literal Format) - an XML-based protocol for handling AJAX requests and AMF (Action Message Format) - binary protocol developed by Macromedia for Flash-based clients.
• Rich Client System. WebORB includes a set of APIs to simplify object binding and invocation process. Future releases will provide dynamic user interface widgets, event framework, support for drag-and-drop, messaging client for peer-to-peer and broadcast message delivery.
• ColdFusion Components (CFC) support. WebORB 2.0 introduces integration with the BlueDragon CFML engine from New Atlanta Communications. AJAX and Flash Remoting clients can easily bind and message any CFC component via WebORB and BlueDragon  (on either the J2EE or .NET editions of BlueDragon)
• Ability to map client classes to the server ones and vice versa.
• Type adaptation improvements. Added support for conversion of string-based arguments to the numeric types 
• JDBC Integration improvements. Change to use column labels instead of column names.
• WebORB for Java introduces Development Mode. Without a license key, WebORB for Java will respond to the requests only from 1 IP address and will shutdown after 3 hours of operation. Process restart will reset the IP address and the 3 hour timeout.
