        I don't quite understand what you want. All CORBA calls currently
listen in two mainloops - and if you are in either you process calls. All
are added by default to the global g_mainloop which Gtk+ also uses to
handle X requests. If you are inside a CORBA method, then you use the
linc_mainloop to stop X / timeouts re-entering during the CORBA method.

        If you are writing your own mainloop, then probably you want to
iterate the linc_mainloop occasionaly to ensure that CORBA things are
processed.

        I hope that helps, but I still don't understand the question.

        Regards,

                Michael.
