Method and apparatus for generation and installation of distributed objects on a distributed object system

A computer-implemented method for creating a distributed object suitable for use on a distributed object system, comprising:

• providing
• interface files describing interfaces contained in the distributed object,
• implementation files describing distributed object implementations,
• servant class files describing a servant class of object implementations, and
• compiling under computer control the interface, implementation and servant class files to produce compiled header and source files corresponding to said interface, implementation and servant class files, wherein the source files corresponding to the implementation files include template source files;
• and
• linking under computer control the header and source files with a wrapper class containing functions and services for operating the distributed object on the distributed object system, so that the wrapper class has an inheritance relationship with respect to the servant class, wherein the inheritance relationship is such that the wrapper class inherits from the servant class to create thereby a distributed object configured to operate on said distributed object system.
