What functionality was it that cloudscape lacked? We're currently
evaluating pure java databases and cloudscape is our preferred choice so
far. It would be interesting to hear your "not functional enough"
arguments.

I'm looking forward to your book!

Subject:        CORBA-compatible EJB server and database needed

Hey guys,

I've been developing a CORBA client example for my EJB book, and
unfortunately I'm at a standstill.  I'm looking for an EJB server that
supports CORBA clients connecting to enterprise beans in a relatively
portable way.  The EJB servers I've looked at so far either do not support
CORBA clients, or have proprietary 'helper methods' you need to call that
make your client code not portable.

Are there any vendors out there that supports relatively portable
client-side CORBA APIs?  Ideally I'd like a server that will let me:

- Use Java as a client language
- Call enterprise beans using portable CORBA APIs
- Use IIOP as the transport protocol
- Perform Bean lookups via CosNaming
- Perform Transactions via JTS/OTS

I'm also looking for a good database that I can ship an eval copy of with
my
book.  The database needs to have an available JDBC driver that supports
all
transaction isolation levels.  The ones I've been playing with for the last
few months are either not functional enough (cloudscape, MS access), too
huge/tough to install for a book CD-ROM (oracle), or politically unsound
(MS
sql server:)

If you have any information please send it my way.

Thanks
-Ed
