[omniORB] Main Thread Mode - POA Questions

Craig,

   I had the same issue with needing a non-reentrant CORBA server. You just
   need to create a new POA as a child of the root POA (under the same
   POAManager), whith a policy of PortableServer::SINGLE_THREAD_MODEL. If
   you don't have it, you should get the "Advanced CORBA Programming with
   C++" book by Henning and Vinoski - it goes through all of this in
   detail. Below is what I would have had to add to your code to make our
   app work:


   >orb_ = CORBA::ORB_init(argc, argv, "omniORB4");
   >CORBA::Object_var obj = orb_->resolve_initial_references("RootPOA");
   >poa_ = PortableServer::POA::_narrow(obj);
   >PortableServer::POAManager_var pman = poa_->the_POAManager();

   CORBA::PolicyList pl;
   pl.length(1);
   pl[0] =
   root_poa->create_thread_policy(PortableServer::SINGLE_THREAD_MODEL);

   PortableServer::POA_var my_poa = root_poa->create_POA("myPOA", pman,
   pl);

   // activate our object in the new POA
   MyObject_var my_obj = new MyObjectServant();
   PortableServer::ObjectID_var myObjID = my_poa->activate_object(my_obj)

   >pman->activate();

   Hope this helps,
