Hi,

I am writing regarding the below mail Sai-Lai Lo wrote back in July 1997. I=
=20
was wondering  if anyone could you tell me more information regarding=20
creating a daemon (like Orbix) in OmniOrb. Basically what we require is to=
=20
spawn the server on demand, just like orbix. Currently we are using orbix=20
2.3c and wish to port to OmniOrb.

Sai-Lai Lo are you still around? I know that Olivetti & Oracle Research Lab=

was bought over by ATT in 1999.

Any advice from anyone would be much appreciated! Can reply direct as well!

Regards and TIA!

This dynamic server activition policy is one of the four activition<br>

omniORB only supports the persistent server policy and not=

Having said that, all the APIs are there in omniORB to implement a=
