Whats New and Improved in This Release
The following enhancements have been made in the BEA WebLogic Enterprise 5.1 software:
This release includes the integration of the BEA WebLogic Server product (referred to as the J-Engine) in the BEA WebLogic
Server product with the BEA Tuxedo® Engine (referred to as the T-Engine).
The J-Engine provides the front-end EJB container that interfaces with the
Web and browser users. The T-Engine provides the back-end EJB container that
supports secure interoperability across multiple programming models (ATMI, CORBA,
and EJB) and languages (Java and C++).
These APIs enable CORBA Java objects
and EJBs to call Tuxedo services running in the same BEA WebLogic Enterprise domain.
BEA Jolt allows Java client applications to
make calls on a Tuxedo service that exists in a BEA Tuxedo or BEA WebLogic Enterprise domain
and has been certified to support BEA WebLogic Enterprise software.
This product uses IIOP connection pools to allow servlets and EJBs running in the BEA
WebLogic Server environment to invoke CORBA objects in the BEA WebLogic Enterprise environment.
Provides support for
SSL-based connections in the connection pool between the J-Engine and the T-Engine and
allows transaction context to be passed from the J-Engine to the T-Engine environment
(connection multiplexing using transactions).
Provides Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) and Link-Level Encryption (LLE) support for BEA WebLogic Enterprise J-Engine applications..
EJB and RMI applications are now able
to use stubs generated by the idltojava compiler to invoke BEA WebLogic
Enterprise CORBA objects.
For information on
how to access these sample applications, see the Unsupported Samples and Tools Web Page.
A version built using the Sun Microsystems, Inc. WorkShop 5.0 compiler in standard mode
and a version built
using the same compiler in compatibility mode. You have the option of installing the desired
version.
