It seems you aren't using the autoloader (read: BOAObjectRestorer) . You
should use that for binding-on-demand :-)

There are a couple of such loader templates in KOM/OP, all doing quite the
same :)

The kded tutorial examples in kdelibs show how to use these templates,
it's like this:

AddressBookImpl::AddressBookImpl( const CORBA::BOA::ReferenceData &refData)
: AdressBook_skel( refData )
{
  ..your constructor..
}

AddressBookImpl::AddressBookImpl( CORBA::Object_ptr obj )
: AddressBook_skel( obj )
{
  ...same here :-) ...
}

(make sure to provide *both* of these constructors)

Then you can use KOMAutoLoader (for example), in order to load that thing
on demand:

int main()
{
... 
  KOMAutoLoader<AddressBookImpl> myLoader( "IDL:KAddressBook/AddressBook:1.0", "KAddressBook" );
...
}

The rest is it-happens-inside-MICO magic :-)

However I'm not 100% sure if the above stuff is 100% correct, I just
recalled it from my mind, at 2:30 in the middle of the night, and I'm too
tired now to dig it right :-}

Hope this helps anyway :)

Ciao,
 Simon
