Java, CORBA and ORBit

I’ve been testing java corba functionality togheter with ORBit. I want to use Mozilla Calendar/Sunbird with java. It would be nice if the gui of our smartbag project could work like an sunbird extensions. But we want/need to write it in Java.
Blackconnect could be a solution but it hasn’t been maintained for over a year and it would take us to long to get it to work. An other way is to write a c++ wrapper module that communicates with our java “smartbag server” over corba.
The big problem was that I couldn’t get the java server to work with the orbit-name-server. After some strugeling I turned to tnameserv that’s part of the java distribution. It works like a charm this way. I’m using ORBit2 for the c/c++ client program.
