[omniORB] Invalid TypeCode..

[Shawn Bisgrove]

Armin,

   That worked.  Thanks!   

   The question now is why did it work and what does
it do?   Forgive me for being dense.  I would like to
know if this is nescessary to solve the problem at
hand or if it is just coincidentally masking the
underlying problem.

   omniORB::useTypeCodeIndirections = 0 ; //added
