Just to dispel any idea that this has been plucked out of thin air by
the JacORB implementors I'll note that there appears to be both a
standard for and more than one implementation of ssliop.
Regarding implementations, OpenORB and TAO also implemented it.
As regards standardization I think the relevant info is in the interop
documentation found at http://www.omg.org/spec/CORBA/3.3/. Look in part
2 of the spec dealing with interoperability and search for IIOP/SSL.
Tomek may be able to clarify whether that provides all the relevant
information.
I have a general concern that this might be overlaying part of CORBA 3.3
over an API/implementation that is based on CORBA 2.3.1. I don't know
what the compliance issues are here and what certification is required
to claim CORBA 3.3 or even partial compliance. So I expect there is more
work to do than might initially seem. Aside from stating compliance then
this will require tests and I don't see these in the patch. I don't see
any javadoc either (I realize some of strangely named classes might be
generated from IDL).
