[omniORB] Automated clientside timeout

Is it possible to set up omniORB on the client-side
to throw som kind of timeout-exception after a predetermined
time where the server hasn't answered? I have a client
that after a given time (say 2 seconds) needs to continue
from a call even if the server hasn't answered (because
of high load). My current solution is to have a seperat
thread monitor the call, but I find that it would be
a lot more convenient if the ORB could be configured to 
throw a timeout exception to the calling thread.

Thanks
