>Are there URL or URN schemes that would be used for naming CORBA or >SOM or OLE objects? Is there a CORBA/SOM/OLE equivalent for URCs? As has been said on this list last year, the X/Open Federated Naming spec covers naming of multiple namespaces including CORBA. The OMG Common Object Serveices Spec 1 Naming Service gives the IDL for operations within the CORBA world, and IIOPallows these names to be composed together with for example Internet names. As has been said before, XFN names have attributes and operations on attributes to allow query. The technology is implemented in Unix operating systems, and as these are more widely deployed on the Internet the lowet common denominator of naming facilities will hopefully rise, gradually. murrayb
