What do you mean by support?  The FactoryFinder is specified in IDL,
so omniORB supports it in the sense that you can write client and
server code which uses the interface. If you mean does omniORB provide
an implementation of the interface, then no. The whole Life Cycle
service is really just a design pattern. Implementations of all the
interfaces are application specific.

If you need something like the FactoryFinder, I strongly recommend
that you write your own similar interface which is less generic. It
will save you a lot of pain.

Cheers,

Duncan.
