FW: [omniORB] Beginners Question: ORB_Init in a GUI app.

[edmar stoks]

Hi there,

I read in the omniorb manual (node3.html) that you should destroy the boa 
otherwise on NT you application crashes on the end. Maybe this is your 
problem. Please let me know if this solves your problem.

Manual text:

These two calls are particularly important when writing a CORBA DLL on 
Windows NT that is to be used from ActiveX. If these calls are absent, the 
application will hang when the CORBA DLL is unloaded.
