Re: how to implement callbacks

[Charles Lockhart <lockhart jeans ifa hawaii edu>]

Hi Micheal, thanks for the feedback.

I don't want to bombard anybody with my ugly code, so I posted the files at:

http://www.geocities.com/curis07/corba/orbit/

I included the java files, the idl file, my main.c, and the 
implementation file.  The stuff I'm trying to figure out is at the 
bottom of the corba-impl.c.html file.

The reason I'm using the default orbit stuff w/ the RH7.2 distro is that 
it's easy, everything's already there.  I like the orbit/corba stuff, 
but just don't have the time right now to spend hours trying to 
install/upgrade to orbit2, and in the long run it's better for our 
systems if it's not required.  If some guy can just load the default 
install of RH7.2 off of the cdroms then copy over our applications, 
we're golden.  If I put in too many instructions, they get confused.

Although if orbit2 just happens to be there already, please let me know. 
  I was pretty happy a few months ago when I found out that orbit came 
installed by default on the systems I was working on.
