I followed the directions on the site you listed and also had trouble
finding the files generated by the IDL compiler.  It turned out that my
projects settings did not have the correct IDL compiler settings loaded
into my project and as a result, my IDL file wasn't actually being compiled.  

In a default project, JBuilder sets the IDL compiler to none.  I had to 
go into the settings for my project (Project | Project Properties) and 
select the "IDL" option from the "Build" settings.  From here, I could 
select the IDL compiler I set up from the instructions listed on the 
website you referenced and provide any appropriate command line options.  

I should point out that to control the IDL compiler options such as
package name and IDL include directories, you should specify these in the
"Additional options" field.  The supplied areas for providing these options
will not work with the Orbacus IDL compiler (JBuilder uses the wrong
command line options for our IDL compiler).

Once all of this was set up, I was able to successfully compile the hello
world application in JBuilder using the Orbacus IDL compiler.  The source
files that were generated from the IDL compiler were located in a folder
called "Generated Source", which was located in the same folder as all of
my compiler .class files.

Regards,
Darren
