[Geotools-devel] Corba COMM_FAILURE error trying to using GeoTools application offline

[Greg M. <Gre...@no...>]

I have attached a sample piece of code I cannot get to work when
the laptop is offline (not connected to the LAN). I am trying to get
GeoTools to work without a network interface and I cannot get it to work.
It works as long as the laptop is connected to a lan. The simple code
found below will fail with Corba networking errors when you disable
network interfaces.  

I have tried running the app with corba set to localhost and null and
I have tried removing the corba arguments altogether and it still
does not get past the Corba issue.

Is there a way to turn off the Corba lookup pragmatically when you 
go offline to prevent the Corba problem?
