ORBit - Gnome trouble - dropped messages

["Bowman, Michael W. (MBOWMAN)" <MBOWMAN arinc com>]

Hi,

I've developed a test client/server application using ORBit to provide
communications between the client and server. My IDL uses the "oneway"
keyword for the method I'm calling so that the client can call it as fast as
possible and return to its business. My server's called method basically
just waits for a second or so and returns.

I know the "oneway" keyword is depreciated, but I can't find any good info
on how to use the event service. I'm kind of new at this stuff.

Here's my problem...

If I use CORBA_ORB_init() and CORBA_ORB_run() in my client and server, the
test client calls the method on the server and quits. The server slowly
processes each call and finishes. The server does process ALL of the calls
made to it. However, if I change my client and server to use
gnome_CORBA_init() and gtk_main(), only the first call to the server is
processed and the rest are dropped.

Those two changes are the ONLY ones made to the client and server code. Can
anyone tell me how to avoid this problem?

Thanks, Michael.
