This is totally dependant on what data structures you've defined on your
servant object, which is beyond the scope of CORBA or ORBit.

If you've used orbit-idl --skeleton-impl, look in the skelimpl file for
something like:

typedef struct {
	POA_MyModule_MyInterfaceType servant;
	PortableServer_POA poa;

} impl_POA_MyModule_MyInterfaceType;

In that servant struct, you need to stick all the data structures you need
to implement your object, including whatever data structures you want to
map your attributes to. Modify those data structures from within the server
if you like.
