[omniORB] Multiple Network Interfaces

[bjorn rohde jensen]

Hi Jens,

  I think, there is no such possibility in any ORB available,
since such a feature would be quite a bit against the
location and access transparency principles of the object
model.
  It sounds like you need something like a bridge. You can
make one by having a CORBA application handle each interface
exclusively and allowing them to talk to each other using
the loopback, unix domain sockets etc. It is fairly simple,
but you suffer an overhead due to marshalling requests between
two applications. An elegant solution would have been to
create 2 orb instances in the same application, but that is
not supported for omniORB.

Yours sincerely,

Bjorn
