Summary Orbix provides a means to configure the maximum size allowed for unbounded strings passed to\\from a server application.
Article Number
Environment All supported platforms
Question/Problem Description

In theory, the size of unbounded is not limited. However, in practice applications have finite resources and may be unable to process strings above a certain size.

This limitation may lead to problems when passing large, unbounded strings.

Defect/Enhancement Number RPI 1090914 & ORB-2218
Cause
Resolution

Orbix 6.3.6.03 introduces a new configuration variable which allows users to specify a size limit for all unbounded strings passed to\\from a server application.

The variable "plugins:orb:max_unbounded_string_size" sets the maximum size of the string in MB. If a string larger than this size is passed, an exception with the the following message is raised:

org.omg.CORBA.MARSHAL: IT_Core:LENGTH_TOO_LARGE:0:?string too long?
