Hello,

as far as I know, with Corba you can specifiy an amount of time, that a
client request should wait for a answer from the server. If this time has
run out, Orb runtime is canceling the request on the client side.

My question is:
Is this a reliable, portable Mechanism or just a hint to the runtime to try
to cancel the request after a certain amount of time?

In other words:

Is it garanteed, that a request returns after 10s, if i set the timout to
10s?


best regards

Jakob
