Oops... I figured out what was going wrong. I was using Java code generated
by a propietary tool called Silk Pilot, and buried within it was a call to
System.exit in response to an exception. The exception was only happening in
Tcl, not sure why but I have worked out how to generate my own object
references. Here are the details for anyone who's interested.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
package require java
# Set up arguments for creating an orb reference
set props [java::call System getProperties]
set args [java::new {String[]} 0]
# Create the orb reference
set orb [java::call org.omg.CORBA.ORB init $args $props]
# Get the stringified IOR
set fh [open "/path/to/the/ior/file" r]
set IOR [read $fh]
close $fh
# Create an object reference
set ref [$orb string_to_object $IOR]
# Cast it to the type you want
set ctpif [java::call CtpModule.CtpIfHelper narrow $ref]
# Invoke its methods
$ctpif getCtpNames ...
