[omniORB] How to create a Persistance Corba server

[Mahanta, Dhruba]

Hi Duncan

Thanks for your quick response. As you suggested, I do that to specify the IP and Port while initializing as below:

CORBA::ORB_var objCorbaOrb;
string strIP, strPort;

GetIPPort(strIP, strPort);
string strConfiguredIP_Port = "giop:tcp:" + strIP + ":" + strPort; 
const char* options[][2] = { { "endPoint", strConfiguredIP_Port.c_str() }, { 0, 0 } }; 

objCorbaOrb = CORBA::ORB_init(argc, argv, "omniORB4", options);

I did not mention the above part in my early code snip shot in order to keep it short.

But still it did not worked as expected. Please help to figure out the issue.


Regards
Dhruba

As well as using a persistent policy POA (which you are, by using the
omniINSPOA), you must pin down the port the server listens on.
Otherwise, the server will listen on a different port chosen by the OS
each time it starts. You need to give an endPoint parameter:
