Orbix 3.3 C

All Supported Operating Systems

A timeout when set on a specific operation using this approach is ignored:

    CORBA::Environment& env = CORBA::IT_chooseDefaultEnv();
    env.timeout(1000);
    height = grid->height(env);

No timeout exception will ever be thrown in this case.

The CORBA::IT_chooseDefaultEnv() is the default environment included in every Orbix call. This is for historic reasons for compilers that did not support exception handling.

The default environment should not be used to set specific timeouts on operations. Instead a new environment variable should be created an passed in:

    CORBA::Environment env;
    env.timeout(1000);
    height = grid->height(env);
