<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm; margin-bottom:.0001pt">Hi,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am using omniORB 4.1.2 in C++ code that I develop using Visual Studio 2005. I am developing a C++ service with CORBA interface on 64 bit Windows 7 version. I would like the app to be 32 bit version though. My pre-processor variables are:</p>
