no, an automatic way like with CORBA is not yet available. All needed parts
for the infrastructure are there (networking classes, beginning of stub
generator,
etc.), but for now you would have to do things "by hand" by sending
commands to a server that invokes the desired object methods. We hope sometime
the missing parts will be implemented to give ROOT CORBA like features.
Cheers, Fons.
