	Sorry, I should have figured it out... I opted not to use confix,
	and this mistake is a result of that decision...

	OK, with this fixed, I was able to generate and run the local
	component with no further problems... However, now I'm having
	trouble getting the remote component to work.

	I'm still using "example1" from the tutorial. I created all of
	the pieces via:

	ccmtools-generate c++local -a -o CarRental.remote *.idl
	ccmtools-generate idl2 -o CarRental.remote/CORBA_Stubs *.idl
	ccmtools-generate c++remote -o CarRental.remote *.idl
	ccmtools-generate c++remote-test -o CarRental.remote *.idl
	cp impl/CarRental_business_impl.cc impl/CarRental_impl.h \
	   impl/CarRental_maintenance_impl.cc CarRental.remote/impl

	(the implementation files are the ones which came with example1
	in the ccmtools distribution). Next, I compile all of these
	things into these shared libraries:

	       libCCM_Local_BigBusiness_CCM_Session_CarRental.dylib
	       libCCM_Remote_BigBusiness_CCM_Session_CarRental.dylib
	       libCORBA_Converter.dylib
	       libCORBA_Stubs.dylib
	       libCarRental_impl.dylib

	All seems fine... next I copied the remote test program from
	example1/test, fixed it up, and then linked the test with:

	c++ -DUSING_CONFIX -Wno-long-double -g -I/opt/local/include \
	    -I$destroot/include -o try \
	    _check_CCM_Remote_BigBusiness_CCM_Session_CarRental_remote.cc \
	    -L$destroot/lib -lCCM_Remote_BigBusiness_CCM_Session_CarRental \
	    -lCCM_Remote_CCM_Session_Container -lCORBA_Stubs \
	    -L/opt/local/lib -lWX_Utils_types -lWX_Utils_error \
	    -lWX_Utils_code -lmicocoss2.3.11 -lmico2.3.11

	This links fine... but now how do I get micod (or whatever)
	to load the component when needed? What does it load? One
	of these shared libraries?

	While I used a corba environment in the past, it came with
	scripts which would start all of the servers/daemons, and
	unfortunately, I relied on them! Could you give me some hints
	on how to get this going? Or if I've done something wrong
	above (or left something out)?

	A couple of other minor points... It would be nice if instead of
	using 'USING_CONFIX' to switch on/off what path should be used
	to include the header files, you used something like
	'USING_CONFIX_PATHS'. I find that I have to define 'USING_CONFIX'
	even though I'm not, and I worry that at some point 'USING_CONFIX'
	will imply more than just different header paths. BTW, what
	do you use when you're not USING_CONFIX... just makefiles created
	by hand?

	Also, I had to make some changes to the Cpp templates to get the
	generated code to compile (I think it's just an oversight), and
	I've included that patch file below.

							many thanks,
							Darrell
