[omniORB] How to use omniORB in forked process?

[Gerd Schmitt]

Achim,

are you doing an exec() immediatly after forking? I assume you
should do this. In our application I do a system() (which is
basically the same as fork() + exec()) without any problems.

However, if you don't want to exec() you might try to exit
your child via _exit(). This avoids any static deinitialisation.
The tradeoff is that this cuts off any leakage checker or profiler.
And you probably should close all open file descriptors greater than 2.
Well, by writing this I really think you should do it the exec()-way.

hth,
Gerd
