I know from personal experience that classes generated by Sun's IDL compiler don't
work correctly with the ORBacus CORBA runtime (maybe they do in some circumstances,
but you definatly don't want to rely on it). I guess it is possible that going the
other way (using ORBacus jidl with Sun runtime) does work - I've never tried it. My
impression was that you shouldn't try to do this, however.
