Hello, we currently have a problem on our project where a Corba server written in C++ sometimes hangs. This also hangs my java client when it makes a call to that server. I was wondering if there is a way to get a hold of the socket that's actually being used by Corba to send a method request. Then I would be able to close that socket from another thread and stop my hanging. Right now I have to abandone the thread and proceed with processing logging the fact that the server is hanging. This works but is not pretty.

Kyle, The approach you've taken is probably the most clean and practical. What you've done is basically introduce the idea of a timeout into your distributed object interaction. You should check the documentation with your ORB, as I believe many provide a timeout setting for just this purpose. Do you have this problem with your C++ server when you use a client that isn't Java. If so, and if possible, you might try investing some time to see what's going wrong in the C++ server. Best of luck! -Joel
