Duncan,
Thanks for the reply and for your time! Now that I am 
aware of it I will find how to workaround the issue!

Cheers,
Ivan

I believe JavaIDL reuses the existing connection to the server in these sorts of recursive calls. omniORB versions prior to omniORB 4 did not cope with this, since they assume there is only one call in flight on a connection at a time. The solutions are to update to omniORB 4, or use a Java ORB that can be configured to open new connections rather than reusing connections that already have a call in flight.

Duncan.
