[omniORB] Calculating the message size of a response

[Floris Bruynooghe]

Hi

When the giopMaxMsgSize is exceeded the server code never knows this
and the client code just gets a COMM_FAILURE instead of a more
meaningful error.

Is it somehow possible to calculate the size of a message before
sending it on the server side?  Basically perform the marshalling
(from within python) and check the result so you could decide to raise
a custom exception which is more specific.  (Bonus points for then
being able to send this already marshalled data instead of having to
repeat that)

Thanks
Floris
