You can certainly write a test application which operates as both a
CORBA client and a CORBA server.  There is no need to create a separate
thread for the server, since the ORB creates the necessary threads to
handle incoming calls anyway.

(Note that orb->run() doesn't do anything but wait for the ORB to be
shutdown, so you don't actually need to devote a thread to calling it).

Luke.
