I use omniORB4 with Sun and IBM Java ORBs (JDK 1.2.2 on Solaris at least)
with a bit of configuration.  I've never hit a NameService problem, but
then I always use string_to_object() on the stringified IOR from omniNames
(not an INS corbaloc).  I do need to force omniORB to use GIOP 1.0, since
the IBM Java ORB I use does not process GIOP 1.2 message fragments
correctly.  If you need wstring support, that might be an issue.  I don't
know how to make the default fragment size large enough to accomodate my
largest expected message size, which is what I did with Orbix2000 to get it
to play nice with the same Java ORB.

Also, I do not use the com.ibm.CORBA.iiop.ORB class.  That one makes
assumptions about the structure of the object key in the IOR and throws an
array index out of bounds exception if passed an omniORB IOR, but not an
Orbix2000 IOR which must have long enough keys to satisfy the assumptions.
I use the com.ibm.rmi.iiop.ORB class and everything works fine.

Thanks for the reply, but it doesn't really help me.

I have legacy issues that require that I continue
using older versions of Java from Sun and IBM.
Thats why I asked the question the way I did on 4.x.x.

so back to the original question, does anyone know
if omnORB 4.x.x works with Java versions older than
1.4. (i.e. 1.2.x and 1.3.x )

TIA,

- Mike
