Milestone 2
Due: by Sunday, May 2, 11:59pm
At this milestone, each student should be able to demonstrate a 3-tier CORBA application with an HTML or Java Applet client that communicates with a servlet that in turn communicates with a CORBA IDL interface implemented in Java and implemented and served up by a CORBA server executable. The CORBA object should in turn hit a database via JDBC, and return some information to the servlet, which will package that information up into HTML tables (in the case of an HTML client) or stream it back to the Java Applet. Please try and keep this as simple as possible, it could get out of hand if you aren't careful. I want the mechanism working, not for you to impress us with with how much data you can hand back and forth.
Deliverables:
1. Send a tarred/gzipped archive containing your source code, a
makefile, and a readme file. Name your tarball according to your uid
and the assignment number. For example, my milestone 2 would be named:
"skuehn.milestone2.tar.gz". Send the email to ta-51024@cs.uchicago.edu
with 'CSPP51024 M2' as the subject. The readme file should
describe your design and list/brag about any optional features you
included.
2. Include in the body of the message a link to your
website where we can test your servlet/corba functionality.
3. When we are ready for grading, there will be a note sent to the class
with instructions on how to start up your servers. Until then, you are
only required to send an email containing the two items listed above.
