Interface description language
An interface description language (or
alternatively, interface definition
language), or IDL for short, is a
specification language used to describe a
software component's interface. IDLs
describe an interface in a languageindependent way, enabling
communication between software
components that do not share a language
– for example, between components
written in C++ and components written in
Java.

Object (computing) - Distributed objects
1
The object-oriented approach is not just a
programming model. It can be used
equally well as an interface definition
language for distributed systems. The
objects in a distributed computing model
tend to be larger grained, longer lasting,
and more service oriented than
programming objects.

Object (computing) - Distributed objects

A standard method to package distributed objects is
via an Interface Definition Language (IDL)

Object (computing) - Objects and the Semantic Web
OWL objects are not like standard large
grained distributed objects accessed via an
Interface Definition Language. Such an
approach would not be appropriate for the
Internet because the Internet is constantly
evolving and standardization on one set of
interfaces is difficult to achieve. OWL objects
tend to be similar to the kind of objects used
to define application domain models in
programming languages such as Java and
C++.

Common Object Request Broker Architecture - Overview

language (IDL) to specify the interfaces
which objects present to the outer world

Common Object Request Broker Architecture - Data By Value
1
The CORBA Interface Definition Language
provides the language- and OS-neutral
inter-object communication definition.
CORBA Objects are passed by reference,
while data (integers, doubles, structs,
enums, etc.) are passed by value. The
combination of Objects-by-reference and
data-by-value provides the means to
enforce strong data typing while
compiling clients and servers, yet
preserve the flexibility inherent in the
CORBA problem-space.

Common Object Request Broker Architecture - Benefits

* Data-typing: CORBA provides flexible data
typing, for example an ANY datatype.
CORBA also enforces tightly coupled
datatyping, reducing human errors. In a
situation where Name-Value pairs are passed
around, it is conceivable that a server
provides a number where a string was
expected. CORBA Interface Definition
Language provides the mechanism to ensure
that user-code conforms to method-names,
return-, parameter-types, and exceptions.
