I am working on a Corba client for some time. One problem that I run in is that I am not really able to define a timeout configuration.
I am using a Mico C++ orb but it seems to be a global problem because I found noone who could describe if there is a Corba defined method to configure a request timeout.
Does anyone know of such an interface or orb initialization?
The Messaging section of the CORBA spec defines RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicy and RelativeRoundtripTimeoutPolicy for that. You may look at the section named "Programming client timeouts" in http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/PDF/C++-report-col19.pdf for more information.
I don't have experience with MICO, but it seems that it is supported since version 2.3.13
