[omniORB] omniorb_2.8 client blocking problem

[Jason Chu]

Hi, I am new to this subscription list.
 
I have a multi-thread omniob_2.8 client talking to another multi-thread
Java 1.5 server.  We have a situation here where one of the thread
blocks when it calls this CORBA method:
 
(Auto-generated code)
Mcs::OutputGreekSequence * Mcs::_proxy_QuantModel::value(const
Mcs::ModelInput & input)
{
  _0RL_pc_8e49803906fbc191_00000000 _call_desc("value", 6, input);
 
  OmniProxyCallWrapper::invoke(this, _call_desc);
  return _call_desc.result();
}

Looking at the server side log, there are no traces of this method ever
been invoked.  It is as if the message sent from client is lost all
together.  However the other client threads are happily running along
continuing to talk to the server and the server is also replying to
those other threads.  So I know the server hasn't crashed.  Also if I
was to resend this same request a second time, I do get a reply, hence I
know it is message specific.
 
I know this is vague, so I am happy to provide whatever info you
require.  Also we can't move from omniorb_2.8.
 
My question is:
 
Does CORBA guarantee delivery of the "invoke(....)", i.e. does it
guarantee that when a client calls invoke(...) the server will actually
received the call?  Can "invoke" get lost like packets over the network?
I can't see any traces of the server ever having received the request.
 
Maybe this is because of my lack of undering of CORBA, I just need some
input as I don't even know where to start with this?
 
Jason
