The Java 2 platform provides support for CORBA (including IDL-Java mapping,
various CORBA services and even an ORB implementation). It also comes with
extensive documentation. You may want to check it out. After all, it is part
of the JDK and chances are that Java 2-based EJB servers will tap into it
for CORBA client support.
