ACE TAO cannot get NameService object in debug mode

I'm running a multi-program projects using ACE TAO. I set the Environment Variables and compiled ACE_TAO environment. Then I copied the tao_cosnaming.exe to my project run directory and use a .bat to start the naming service.

The programs run well if I start them directly, but they could not get the "NameService" correctly when I invoke obj = orb->resolve_initial_references("NameService") in debug mode. (I could not run obj->_non_existent(), it throws an error).

It seemed because the Naming Service is implemented as a remote one. When I invoke obj = orb->invoke resolve_initial_references("RootPOA"), things are fine, because RootPOA is local object so obj->_non_existent() return immediately.

The .bat file is like:

cd /D %DTAX_RUN_DIR%
tao_cosnaming -ORBEndPoint iiop://%DTAX_NAME_SERVICE_HOST%

The DTAX_RUN_DIR and DTAX_NAME_SERVICE_HOST are Environment Variables. DTAX_RUN_DIR is project run directory and DTAX_NAME_SERVICE_HOST=169.254.51.81:10493

Could anybody share some ideas on what is going wrong? Thanks!

Anybody??? Please!!! Help!!!! – user2801736
do you pass to your program the IIOP endpoint of the Naming Service also? A much better place to ask this is the tao-users mailing list, see cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE-mail.html – Johnny Willemsen

It's hard to give a definite solution with just the information you provided, but in my projects I need to pass "-c" (without the quotes) as a command argument so that I can debug it, maybe you need to do the same. In Visual Studio in the project properties you can find the Command arguments field in Properties/Debugging.
