I think there's a little bit of a misunderstanding here. Jeremie
is not CORBA. Jeremie offers an RMI-like programming style (remote
interfaces, java serialization, etc.) to application developers
but uses CORBA IIOP at the network layer as a transport protocol.
So, Jeremie is only CORBA in as far as the transport protocol goes.
This means that with Jeremie, you do have copy by value semantics
because it's the RMI programming model and so Java serialization
is used to copy objects.
Long term, Jeremie will offer full RMI/IIOP, which means that
you will be able to use remote objects in both a Java
RMI distributed world and in a CORBA distributed world. In the
first world, copy by value semantics is achieved by standard
Java serialization, while in the second world, copy by value
semantics will be obtained by the CORBA 2.3 standard "Objects
by Value".
