[jacorb-developer] timeout policy and JacORB-3.1

[Pascal VERDIER]

Hi Phil

Thanks a lot.  It works fine if I narrow the new object returned.
I seems that the documentation    
http://www.jacorb.org/releases/3.1/ProgrammingGuide.pdf   page 114   is 
not up to date.
Nevertheless, many thanks for your help.
