First question: Is this list actually alive???
Yes, barely. I'm a late comer, but it looks to me like the free
software community experimented with CORBA for a few years and then
(for some good reasons) largely abandoned it in favor of other
approaches.
Second question: Can anyone explain how to set up an ORBit2 server
so that it can process several requests in parallel via
multi-threading?
The single most important thing is to request threading when you
initialize the orb:
orb = CORBA_ORB_init(NULL, NULL, "orbit-io-thread", &ev);
I've not had any (client) threading problems since I switched from
"orbit-local-orb" to "orbit-io-thread". This causes a new thread to
be cloned to handle of the network I/O.
This might be useful, but it looks like I'm able to get everything to
work even without it. I've always used "orbit-local-mt-orb" rather than
"orbit-local-orb", though. I think that means CORBA_ORB_init() sets up
everything so that the ORB may be used across threads, but doesn't
actually add any threads of its own.
