[g-a-devel]CORBA API thought ...

[Michael Meeks <michael ximian com>]

Hi Bill,

	If you take a look at the at-poke CORBA traffic, you notice it's doing
a heck of a lot of:

	getChildAtIndex (0), getChildAtIndex (1) ....

	which is a really big chunk of roundtrips, and far worse, during each
roundtrip the list could change length / order which is a pain for
people to cope with.

	It would be far more efficient to have a 'getChildren' method that
returned a single shot sequence of all the children, which would not
have the re-entering / order changing problems, and would be
considerably faster.

	Just a thought for the next rev.

	Regards,

		Michael.
