[jacorb-developer] duplicate omg CORBA classes

[Nick Cross]

JacORB supplies its own stubs as those are the stubs (and corresponding 
specification versions) that it has been tested with. I do not know what 
version of the OMG spec the IBM stubs comply with. What also would 
happen if the Oracle stubs are a different version as well? Therefore 
this is why most ORB vendors supply their own stubs - you probably need 
to examine how you setup your classpath to resolve this issue.

Saying that I can see some merit in looking towards a split *if* vendors 
are using a similar/same version of the language mapping specification. 
If you could supply patches to split the jacorb jar and the appropriate 
tests to verify it works with and without it I would be happy to look at it.

Regards

Nick
