Hi,

can I create a nil reference based on a repository ID? Of course, I can
create
one when I know the class explicitly at compile time, but using a
servant locator
I only have a repository ID.

But obviously, using create_reference_with_id or something always
requires an
ObjectID and will assume a concrete object behind the reference.

Also, returning CORBA::Object::_nil() won't work when returning the
reference
from a method returning some application specific interface, right?

Henning/Vinoski didn't give me any hint, at least not by a quick look.
Anyone knows how?

Lars
