OAF is the new object activation framework for GNOME. Since many GNOME
|
|
applications utilize CORBA, a framework for locating and activating these
|
|
applications is necessary. OAF, the Object Activation Framework, provides a
|
|
simple method for finding and running the CORBA objects available on a computer
|
|
system.
|
|
|
|
Distributed operation is supported, allowing activation of objects on a
|
|
network of computers being used in a GNOME desktop. The flexibility of OAF
|
|
enables it to be used outside of GNOME programs, allowing non-GNOME CORBA
|
|
applications to be utilized alongside GNOME applications.
