[omniORB] Still help needed in porting Orbix application to omniORB

[Giovanni Organtini]

Hi all,
I still need some input to proceed in my trial to rewrite an application
written for Orbix, using omniORB.

As far as I understand it should be possible to have a client compiled
using omniORB and a server compiled with Orbix. The ORB should do the
work of passing the object from one to the other, so if they are CORBA2
compliant they should be able to send and receive objects reciprocally.
Can you confirm this?

Now, in my client application I bind to a CORBA object existing on the
server side, using the _bind method providing the server name and the
hostname on which the server runs. My application does not compile since
_bind appears not to be a method of the object compiled using omniORB.
Reading the documentation I did not find a solution. I must confess that
I'm a novice in this field and not all the terms are clear to me. Does
anyone has a simple answer to my problem, to be used at least as a
starting point to learn about the way in which omniORB binds to remote
objects?

Thank you very much.

Giovanni
