> Are there any experiences about using JacORB in web/enterprise

> I have designated JacORB as a shared library in the Websphere console
> Environment group and attached this shared library to my enterprise
> application.
> JaCORB seems to work mostly but in the Websphere logs i see

> Exception:java.lang.ClassCastException
> SourceId:com.ibm.ws.wlm.client.WLMClientRequestInterceptor.pre_init
> ProbeId:131
> Reporter:com.ibm.ws.wlm.client.WLMClientRequestInterceptor at 29592959
> java.lang.ClassCastException:
> org.jacorb.orb.portableInterceptor.ORBInitInfoImpl incompatible with
> com.ibm.CORBA.iiop.ExtendedORBInitInfo
> 
> Any hint what I can do about this?
> With my web application I do not use the shared library but rather
> have JacORB available in the wars lib directory; same
> ClassCastException.
> If I choose "Use an isolated class loader for this shared library" in
> the enterprise application case I get a VerifyError and the
> application does not work at all.
> Recently I found a JacORB bug report where someone said, that JacORB
> should be put into the application server bootclasspath; I wonder
> wether IBM Websphere application server would continue to work with
> such a measure?

> Thanke and best regards
