Yes.  See my earlier post.

In fact, this isn't limited to strings.  You will continue
to have problems as long as you continue to use switches
that are incompatable with multithreading and DLLs.

No, you are not the only one using omniORB3 on Windows. This is
a FAQ. If you go back far enough you will find this problem discussed
repeatedly in one form or another.  Unfortunately, I cannot find it
listed in the official FAQ.  (No flame is intended towards the poster.)

OTOH, I'm not sure this is really an omniORB specific problem.

The real problem is that the default setting of single threaded,
static library that the Microsoft compiler wants you to use is
completely broken and totally useless.

HTH,

Bruce
