Visibroker: ClassCastException

[u5914...@spawnkill.ip-mobilphone.net]

Hello there,
We have installed Inprise VisiBroker Developer for Java 3.2
on our PC running Windows NT 4.0. When we tried to compile the samples from an ORB book, however, we got the following errors:

D:\Visigenic\vbroker\java_examples\bank>vbmake
Building the bank example ...
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.corba.se.intern
al.iiop.ORB
at com.visigenic.vbroker.tools.idl2java.main(idl2java.java:30)
Client.java:9: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : class AccountManager
location: package Bank
Bank.AccountManager manager =
^
...

Any advice on how to get around this problem will be helpful.

Thanks,

Shicheng

Maybe that's because you are using Sun's ORB instead of Visibroker's. For
Visibroker 4.5 and JDK 1.3, you have to add orb.properties to your classpath
with following content:

# Make VisiBroker for Java the default ORB
org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass=com.inprise.vbroker.orb.ORB
org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass=com.inprise.vbroker.orb.ORB

I did what you suggested above; when trying out an example on a NT 4.0 PC,
the example worked; but the same piece of example didn't work on
a PC running Windows 2000, instead I got the following error:

Any advice would be helpful, thanks!

Yes, I tried to use Visibroker 3.2 with JDK 1.1, it works; thanks.

BTW, is it possible to use Sun's ORB only instead?! is there any other
free ORBs available apart from the free JacORB?!
