Hello,

Well we use TAO, JackORB, MICO and Orbix for a real time control
system.  We have the system running independently of our EPICS stuff
but within some of my software the CORBA and EPICS are just now
beginning to interact.

I like seem like the MICO GNU orb because it is small and easy
to compile.  I use it with C++ and TCL code now.  Also we use
Jack ORB with JAVA GUI code and it seems to work well.

However our real time system uses the ACE/TAO package which is
large and involved to build.  It does have advantages like
multi-threading and MACROs but for me it seems like using
MICO is just fine on the Solaris and Linux boxes.  Oh yes
the ACE/TAO runs on VxWorks and I do not think MICO has been
ports.

I hope this helps.
