[OmniORB] "pure virtual method called"

[Cameron Rochester]

Hello all,

I am having a problem with "pure virtual method called" (this is the message
printed on screen just before the app core dumps). The exact same code
worked with OmniORB 3.0.3 but does not appear to work with OmniORB 4.0.0.

The code that appears to be giving this exception is:

EventChannelImpl::EventChannelImpl()
{
    ConsumerAdminImpl* ca = new ConsumerAdminImpl();
    m_consumerAdmin = ca->_this();
    ca->_remove_ref();

    SupplierAdminImpl* sa = new SupplierAdminImpl();
    m_supplierAdmin = sa->_this();
    sa->_remove_ref();
}

where the member variables are defined to be:

    CosEventChannelAdmin::ConsumerAdmin_var   m_consumerAdmin;
    CosEventChannelAdmin::SupplierAdmin_var   m_supplierAdmin;

and the classes inherit from the following:

class ConsumerAdminImpl
    : public virtual POA_CosEventChannelAdmin::ConsumerAdmin,
      public virtual PortableServer::RefCountServantBase

class SupplierAdminImpl
    : public virtual POA_CosEventChannelAdmin::SupplierAdmin,
      public virtual PortableServer::RefCountServantBase


Does anyone have any ideas about this problem? Below is the stack trace from
the core dump. The call to "_this()" appears to be the culprit. If anyone
would be able to help it would be most appreciated, please let me know if
you want more information/code.

Thanks in advance
