Hi Anamitra,
<Vendor>
Inprise Application Server ( IAS4) is built on top
of Visibroker from Borland and thus you can
communicate with EJB objects inside your container
from either java EJB client, java CORBA clients and
C++ CORBA clients.
If you want more information please see the following
newsgroup :
http://www.borland.com/newsgroups/
and choose the inprise.public.appserver link.
As for the return by value the latest release of Visibroker
for Java and C++ support pass by value and thus you
can pass objects by value from a Java EJB server to
a C++ CORBA client, although care must be taken. You
can find an online discussion on that issue in the
newsgroup I've mentioned.

hope this helps,
