[orbitcpp-list] Destroying CORBA objects

[Sam C. <sa...@to...>]

All,

I have a CORBA application that creates many objects on the server side,
continuously. I need a way to destroy these objects to avoid memory leaks.

The application was previously using ORBit, and all I did was provide a
free() method on each object, which the client called when it was finished
with the object.

Now that I need to tie the application into a C++ API, I've decided to use
ORBitcpp.

So, how do I destroy an object in the server in ORBitcpp? I know how to
create one (the Account/Bank example), but doing "delete(this)" to destroy
it seems like suicide to me.

Should I provide a bunch of freeObjectFoo() methods on the factory object
that's creating them all in the first place? This doesn't seem like the
correct solution. If I do this, what do I need to do to destroy the objects
passed to this method?

Thanks.
