Ok, I have read some of the doc, the closest I found was a doc about gda which
was a library wrapped around corba.

I thought that corba was allowing to build objects that can be called inside
procedures... Is it possible to write a library that will be called through an
orbit object service?

On MS ocx objects are special libraries (dll) is it possible to do the same
using orbit?

Cheers.
