TAO also sports the first +(as far as we know) implementation of the OMG's Portable Object Adapter +(POA) architecture! + +TAO has been ported to OS platforms including Windows NT 4.x using MSVC++, +several versions of UNIX (e.g., Solaris 2.x, SGI IRIX 6.x, Linux, SCO, +NetBSD, and FreeBSD), and Real-Time OS's (RTOSs) (e.g., VxWorks and +Chorus). Ultimately, TAO will be ported to all OS platforms on which ACE +runs. We have used TAO to interwork with other ORBs (e.g., Orbix, COOL, +CORBAPlus, and VisiBroker), so we're confident that its IIOP implementation +is robust and interoperable. + +The release may be obtained from + $URL + +It's version information is: +$VERSION + +For information on installation and system requirements, please see +TAO-INSTALL.html (or INSTALL) in the root directory of the unpacked tar +file. + +Note that ACE is required to build TAO.
