Siento que esté en inglés, pero es que lo he mandado primero a
comp.object.corba. Aún así, a ver qué os parece.

    Saludos.

Hi all:

    This is only an idea, but I've been thinking on it for some
time. My idea is to provide CORBA interfaces to an abstract
windowing interface. Those windowing interfaces could have
several back-ends: Windows, Qt, GTK, X-Window, etc., but with
common interfaces defined in CORBA IDL. The interfaces could have
convenient abstraction for graphics elements such as lines, arcs,
etc as well as for windows, menus, toolbars, scroll bars, etc,
but INDEPENDENT of the underlying backend.

    I know, I know... one of drawbacks is the slowness of CORBA,
but with the new colocation optimizations, perhaps it would be
realizable.

    The main reasong for this wrapping is to support  a future
Compound Document Model for CORBA. What would CORBA Apps. use to
display their graphical data within their containing document or
view?

    I don't know if this is completelly stupid, but CORBA
wrapping seems to be a good solution for a great number of
environments.

    Thanks in advance.
    Saludos desde España.
    diego.
