You need to make sure that you call orb->destroy() before calling exit().=

When you call exit(), the main function returns and the destruction of st=
atic=20
objects starts.  However, the ORB itself is not properly cleaned up and d=
oes=20
make use of some static objects itself, which can in fact lead to crashes=
 if=20
the ORB were to attempt to call a function on one of these static objects.

Using _exit() terminates the process without calling the destructors of a=
ny=20
static objects, which is why no core dump occurs.

However, in any case a CORBA complaint application *must* call ORB::destr=
oy()=20
before exiting to ensure all resources allocated by the ORB when it was=20
initialized can be cleaned up by the ORB.
