It is possible to use CORBA::ORB_init to set the native codeset for the orb.
But if in an application an orb is retrieved in different configurations the orb is initialized only once.
“-ORBconfigFile config1.cfg”
CORBA::ORB_var orb1 = CORBA::ORB_init(orbInitParams.argc(), orbInitParams.argv());
“-ORBconfigFile config2.cfg”
CORBA::ORB_var orb2 = CORBA::ORB_init(orbInitParams.argc(), orbInitParams.argv());
But the thing is that the first one wins. So in a big application where the caller of the second ORB_init does not know of the first caller he will get the orb configured like 1.
This matters if 1. uses
- nativeCharCodeSet = ISO-8859-1
while 2 uses - nativeCharCodeSet = UTF-8
Is there a way to read the ORB setting to check if settings are attached successful?
Why this shows up: I am using Omniorb in a dll (Thats where I initialize it). Now the application has a second component using omniorb which comes first. So I lost my UTF-8 configuration.
With omniorb it seems not possible to have to orbs in one process or is it possible to read the configuration.
