[omniORB] Garbage collection

[Mike Mascari]

Hello.

I have a session-oriented application which uses an object factory to 
generate a transient session-specific object for each client connection. I 
have read Michi Henning & Steve Vinoski's book regarding the various 
tecniques of garbage collecting the servants when a client dies 
unexpectedly, but none seem too pleasing. One of the methods they refer to 
is the use of ORB proprietary extensions that allow the server code to 
detect when a connection from a client goes down. Does omniORB have such an 
extension? If not, what do people find the most reasonable way to garbage 
collect session-specific servants after a client dies?

Thanks for any information,

Mike Mascari
