I can't figure out why the client keeps complaining about the not finding the factory method. I've tried the IDL with and without the "factory" keyword and that didn't change the behavior. The SDMGeoVT IDL matches other objects used (which run successfully).

The SDMGeoVT classes generated match other generated classes in regards to inheritance and methods.

The IDL is as follows; The idlj compiler runs w/o error. I implement the function on the server and I see the server code run and serialize the object over the wire (the server code runs fine).

The client bombs with the following stack trace (the first couple of lines is from the jacORB library).

I've created a small app just to compile and test the code (ArrayClient & ArrayServer). The base app (from the jacORB demo) works fine.

I've tried using the base class OFBaseVT and a single object (SDMGeoVT vs the list return) and have the same issue.
