In my opinion, placing orb variable into try..catch is not a good idea,
because when the execution comes out of the scope (e.g. leaves try-catch
block), the orb variable gets destroyed and it will probably shut down
your ORB. However, it is always a good idea to call ORB_init() _before_
you start doing your CORBA calls.

So the lines above should look like:

CORBA::ORB_var orb;
orb = CORBA::ORB_init(argc,argv,"omniORB4");

try
{
.....
}
