Using Visibroker for Java in OS/2

[Paulo Santos]

I can't initialize a visibroker ORB client in OS/2 with the Java 1.1.8
recently installed. My applet works in Windows NT, LINUX, UNIX but it
doesn't work on OS/2 when I run with appletviewer.
The problem seems to be in the static initializerof the orb: orb
org.omg.CORBA.ORB.init(applet,NULL).
I have the following parameter in the applet:
<param name=org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass value=com.visigenic.vbroker.orb.ORB>

This is the exception I get:

# Applet exception: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

and this is the exception that caused this ExceptionInInitializerError:

Can you help me?
Thanks.
