CORBAObject object (obsolete)

Obsolete object

CORBAObject object is obsolete, because EAServer is no longer supported since PowerBuilder 2017.

The CORBAObject object gives PowerBuilder clients access to several standard CORBA methods. All proxy objects generated for EAServer components using the EAServer proxy generator are descendants of CORBAObject.
