[omniORB] Problem with omniNames and Java client

[Michael J. Donahue]

Lenny -

For what it is worth we saw a similar problem on AIX.  It
turned out that the IBM port of the Java SDK was
incorrectly giving omniNames a higher GIOP version
number than omniNames (omniORB 2.8.0) allow for.
IBM ended up putting a fix in the their port of the Java
SDK to it have properly start with a base GIOP version
number.  You could do an IP trace an see if the GIOP
version that your Java SDK is providing is compliant.

Hope this helps,

- Mike Donahue

Subject:  [omniORB] Problem with omniNames and Java client




Hi there,

I'm having the following problem using omniNames with the eg3_impl and a
Java client similar to eg3_clt(Java 2 v1.3.0). I found that my Java
client _works_ when I use the Java naming service(tnameserv) instead of
omniNames.

+[E:\omnitest]> java HelloClient -ORBInitialPort 2809

My desired setup is to run the Name Service and my server with
omniORB(not in Java with tnameserv), and my clients in Java. This
problem either lies in omniNames or Java's ORB, or my code. Anyone else
got something like this working? Any idea where the problem could be?

Thanks,
-Lenny.
