Hmmm.  I tried using PolyORB too, when I was having Annex E problems
with Glade.  I couldn't understand how to recode my application to
use CORBA with PolyORB.  Is there a *really* simple HOWTO for people
starting out with this technology?  It looked like a lot of work!
I had hoped that PolyORB would compile and run my Annex E application,
but the dsa personality appeared not to be included in a form which
would build with GNAT GPL 2006.

As I wrote here a few months ago, I did get my application running
under Glade with GNAT GPL 2006, but only by making significant
architectural compromises and work-arounds to avoid Glade problems.
Should I consider be considering moving to PolyORB/dsa?
