[omniORB] Problem with the corbaloc URI

[Serguei Kolos]

Hello

It seems that the corbaloc URI does not work properly with multiple 
object locations.
I have a server application, which may produce either IOR or corbaloc 
reference, then I
run the client with one of those references. With the IOR, which 
contains two profiles the
client attempts to connect to the second location if connection to the 
first one fails. With the
corbaloc URI this never happens. The client in both cases calls the 
string_to_object function
and then tries to invoke an operation on the remote object.
I attached the output with the traceLevel 25 for both cases (note that 
the server is not running
intentionally).
I'm using the omniORB 4.0.3 on Linux (RedHat 7.3 with the 2.4.20 kernel) 
with gcc 3.2.
Am I doing something wrong?
