Morgan Kaufmann Publishers Inc,US MICO: An Open Source CORBA Implementation
Aimed at the C++ programmer, <I>MICO: An Open Source CORBA Implementation</I> can get you up and running quickly with CORBA, a powerful standard for sharing objects in distributed systems. This book and software bundle includes a real, working version of a free Object Request Broker (ORB). Instead of paying thousands of dollars, this title may be all you need to succeed with distributed objects.<p> This tutorial book first explains the background, goals, and evolution of MICO over the past few years. Mini CORBA (MICO) was originally written as a tutorial for learning CORBA, but over the last few years this open source project has grown and has been recently certified as a real implementation of CORBA. <p> Early sections here cover the details of installing and compiling with the supplied MICO binaries and source code, on both UNIX/Linux and Windows. The text is good at the nitty-gritty details of what works and what doesn't. <p> Even if you don't plan to use it as a run-time platform, MICO is still a great way to learn CORBA, and this fast-moving tutorial can get you started. The authors explain the basics of defining interfaces for simple distributed objects with short, effective examples. Rather than go into an exhaustive treatment of all C++ mappings for CORBA's Interface Definition Language (IDL), this guide concentrates on potentially tricky areas, such as strings, arrays and the <I>Any</I> data type. For those readers who want to run MICO as their ORB, the authors also include tips for getting MICO to communicate with commercial ORB products from Iona and Inprise.<p> On the whole, MICO is another example of the strengths of the open source software initiative. Armed with this book and CD, any competent C++ programmer can start using CORBA successfully for real-world projects without paying hefty licensing fees. <I>--Richard Dragan, Amazon.com</I><p> <B>Topics covered</B>: Overview, design goals and evolution of MICO is CORBA (MICO), hardware and software requirements, installing binaries and sources, Common Object Request Architecture (CORBA) tutorial, introduction to Object Request Brokers (ORBs), the Basic Object Adapter (BOA) and Portable Object Adapter (POA) standards, options for activating servers, Interface Definition Language (IDL), tips for using IDL to C++ language mappings: strings, values, arrays, and interface inheritance; interoperability with the MICO, Iona Orbix and Inprise VisiBroker ORBs, using CORBA with Java applets, the CORBA Naming Service, viewing and editing the Interface Repository, and overview of the Dynamic Invocation Interface (DII).

O'Reilly Open Sources: Voices from the Open Source Revolution
It is described as a grass roots revolution. The age of freely available source code for all, developed by thousands of programmers around the world for anyone to access has dawned. <p> As the editors point out, science is an ultimately Open Source enterprise. Why not computer programs? <p> For in the end the discovery process must be served by the sharing of information to enable others to go where one cannot. <p> In this revealing book, 14 of the acknowledged leaders of the Open Source revolution present a reasoned and powerful argument to sustain a new type of software industry powered by people who themselves do not see programming as work but as a satisfying intellectual exercise. It's an attitude which has helped lead to exciting developments now used worldwide--among them the fast growing Linux operating system, Emacs, described as the world's best editor and Perl, now the most popular of all scripting languages. <p> For the computer user Open Source brings what Bruce Perens of Open Source Initiative describes as a bill of rights--free upgrades when you need them, free switch of software when changing from Mac to PC being among them. <p> And he highlights the fact that those who don't make their programs Open Source now find it difficult to compete with those who do. <p> All in all, an intriguing look at revolution that in time will affect every computer user. A thought provoking read. --<I>Stuart Russell</I>

Paraglyph Press Open Source Development with CVS
The need for a modern source-code management strategy in the distributed open source community is paramount. The benevolent dictatorship model of open source maintainers is only quasi-stable, but it is far better than the other extreme: the chaos of democratic code development.<p>The best available compromise is the concurrent versioning system (CVS), which introduces proctored code merging into source code management. CVS is ideally suited for world-wide open source development, and the world is ready for monographs that address the management issues that Per Cederqvist explicitly avoided in his fine 164-page postscript manual distributed with the CVS tar-ball. What is the role of a maintainer/manager in establishing test protocols for code merges? What minimal functional level of developer communications is necessary for merges to remain stable? Is a maintainer-less release possible?<p>These questions go largely unanswered in Karl Fogel's new <I>Open Source Development with CVS</I>. Fogel's 300-page book consists of chapters alternating between CVS basics and common code maintenance issues. He includes a few anecdotes from open source lore and lots of non-specific common-sense guidelines on team software development.<p>Fogel is at his best when he is engaging us in thinking about what should and should not be under CVS control. He points out that complex relationships exist between developing code and its dependencies on intimately related applications, such as build tools themselves (gcc, autoconf) or partner applications, for example, the server's client or the client's server. His brief discussion of strategies is too short to be satisfying.<p>Frustratin gly, Fogel's book is chock-full of post-modern self-indulgences, such as his boasting reverence for technological ignorance. The discipline needed by good maintainers is missing here; Fogel's informal prose is often grating and his copious parenthetical remarks are distracting or bullying (they sure are); one wonders where his editor was. Ultimately, his management arguments boil down to an endorsement for the benevolent dictatorship model--a safe conclusion, but one which seems not to use CVS's merging capability for all that it is worth. To the question of how to run a project, he responds, Well, we're all still trying to figure that out, actually. True, and he isn't there yet, but at least he has the questions right. --<I>Peter Leopold, Amazon.com</I>
