Abstract
Systems and methods for providing communication between different implementations of object request brokers are provided. A bridge including a proxy object allows communication between the object request brokers. The proxy object within the bridge stores the server object reference in its reference data. The proxy object translates messages (e.g., requests and responses/exceptions) to the transfer protocol of the server object and redirects these messages according to the server object reference stored in the proxy object's reference data.
