开源CORBA中间件

This is "qtmico" alias "korba", a qt/mico-adaptor. It is havily based
on the a x11/mico-adaptor by Kay Roemer and was modified by Lars Doelle
for Qt 1.1 or newer. I (kay) changed qtmico.* to get along without
patching Qt. This required an ugly hack which will go away when Qt 1.3
is released.


// Examples //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

  qthello1 runs a server and client without using micod. qthello2 uses micod,
  that is you can terminate the server by closing its window and the next
  invocation from the still running client will then activate a new server
  and restore the Hello object.


// State of the implementation ///////////////////////////////////////////

  Allmost done.

  This runs with multible clients, too. I was also able to validate
  the client operations using the micod. 

  I could validate that Q_OBJECTS and *_impls go well together
  by multiple inheritance. This is usefull when working with qt.

  The eventloop is placed such, that both server nor client
  consume idle time.

  The remaining major concern has to deal with the execution loops.

  These are both started by MICO *and* QT for several reasons. I feel
  quite confused about this topic, since i do not understand precisely,
  when these loops are started (especially in MICO). To have things
  running smooth, they must be made properly interoperating.

  Further, i feel, that the package should offer it's own 'exec', but
  i'm too unexperienced (both with qt dialogs *and* with mico) to be
  able to design a proper interface, that matches the needs of both
  packages. So i expect things to be changed most likely in this area.
