I'm converting a Java/J2EE app over to Ruby/Rails. I need a solution for the CORBA calls. I see that Ruby has its own distributed API (DRb) and there are a few 3rd party CORBA tools, but nothing seems viable for actually doing CORBA in Ruby. What are you guys using professionally?

Disclaimer: I've already searched Google and tried a number of tools. So please only suggest somethig if you are personally using the tools or 100% sure they work. :)

You change from using Ruby on Rails to using CORBA?

If someone don't know what is CORBA or how it function can read this ( just to get a general idea ):

Have you try workaround? What I mean is to create a Ruby api then adapt to CORBA:

Not sure it's gonna work because the issue you are having is a lot of work.
