Have you ever used CORBA and DCOM factories?

Enterprise ORMs were created in Smalltalk, C++ and Objective-C, years before Java was created.

Poet and Enterprise Object Framework were two well known ones.

In fact J2EE was born of the ashes of a failed Objective-C project at Sun, Neo, after its collaboration with NeXT on OpenSTEP failed apart.
