Dec. 2003 1. Introduction StarCCM 1.0 is an OMG's CORBA Component Model(CCM) implementation in c++ language. This software is developed by StarCCM Group of StarMiddleware.net (www.StarMiddleware.net). This version provides service bean, session bean, entity bean, corresponding containers and deployment tools. All codes are compiled for OB-4.1.0 and JTC-2.0.0 successfully. This version also includes an idl3 compiler and a cidl compiler, which resident in ccm\bin directory. You can use idl3 compiler to generate CIF(Component Implementation Framework) files. It also can generate an idl version 2.4 mapping which will be used to generate ORB specific stubs and skeletons. We have integrated OTS (Object Transaction Service) and PSS(Persistant Service) in CCM application server. OTS and PSS implementations are in individual subdirectory of current one. There is a PSDL language compiler in pss\bin directory. The OTS is only for postgres. We have modified postgres implmentation to supports XA interface which is needed by two phase commit protocol. Enhanced postgres' implementation is shipped in corresponding subdirectory. 2. What license does StarCCM have? Please refer to LICENSE in same directory. 3. How to install?
