Are the applications on the same machine or different machines ?
What you have to know about Corba, is that it is used to expose objects (classes) to other applications. This way, from another application, you can access objects that are hosted in your application.
If you have to exchange data (and not really access an object from another application) between the two applications, then I would rather go for something like sockets or shared memory (a standard IPC mechanism).

Yes the applications are in the same machine.
and i have to send data from an application to another.
Note:
The applications are for phone calls, that's why i'm searching for the best and quick solution.
Thank you again for your time.

And the applications are written in the same language ?
From what you are saying, I'm really not sure that Corba is the better solution (but I also only have very limited information, so I might be wrong). You said that it is for phone calls, does it mean that you will need to transfer call data (for instance SMS, or digital data, ...) between the applications ?
Anyway, I suggest you take a look at the "Inter-process communication" section[^] here on CP:

I will write the applications in the same language, (i want to use C++).
Actually, the phone call that i will receive, contain options in it's stack (for exple: it's a fax call).
So i will call the application dedicated to the fax process, and i will send to this application some parameters (like the incoming phone number,...)

sounds almost like you need to consider something like ICE .. www.zeroc.com/[^]

A popular (and free) C++ CORBA implementation is TAO[^].
But I agree with previous posters - CORBA is a complex subject and you should really get a book, such as this one[^]. Good luck.

A previous response indicated that your applications are on the same machine. If so, then use shared memory queue. This will give you the best performance, the easiest code to write and debug and none of the headaches of CORBA or COM (or TCP/Named Pipes/etc.)

OK, sounds like a risky proposition to me...
1st, develop some sort of super weapon.
2nd, keep it totally secret, then ask US special forces to transport it somewhere.
3rd, When attacked by CORBA COMMANDOs, ask them politely to hand deliver some messages for you.
4th, Make sure you are a hot babe, then they will only knock you out.
As I said, more than a little risky, and also complicated. You will need to save up a lot of money for an underground lair also...
What, you didn't say COBRA?

Hi all,
i have made a worker thread and from that worker thread i am calling function to do some processing.
i have started my worker thread using this code
pThread = AfxBeginThread(Thread , (LPVOID) this);
I am terminating that thread on click event of a button, using this code
int ret = ::TerminateThread(pThread->m_hThread,NULL);
My problem is when TerminateThread line is being executed pointer never returns back i can't get its return value and lines after that piece of code is not being executed.
How to resolve this problem??
Thanks in advance...

Don't use TerminateThread, as stated in the documentation  . There are much cleaner way to stop a thread than killing it brutaly. You might want to use a flag: a simple boolean that is set by your mean thread and that your worker checks to see if it has to stop. In which case, simply stop your "loop" in the worker thread.
Using TerminateThread is a very very very bad practice and should be avoided at all costs.

Never call TerminateThread: that is the last, last, last resource. See instead [^].

It seems like you are terminating the same thread that is executing the specified code...  Debugging will help you to identify that.
Btw, TerminateThread is not a good practice.

What's the evidence of that?

Hence your code shows such a behaviour...

I don't need to: I suppose to know both about your code and the OP's one. My mental-diff-tool says they are not the same...

::TerminateThread( GetCurrentThread(), 0 );
cout << "after termination" << endl;
cout.flush();
This was my sample code...

Your hypothesis is actually clever, anyway I cannot see how it fits with OP's introduction:

Of course, you are terminating the current thread, so it's normal that nothing after is executing  . The OP terminates a thread which is probably not the current thread (we can't be 100% sure about that but chances are big that this is another thread).
EDIT: actually, yes it is a different thread because the OP terminates the thread which was created by calling AfxBeginThread.

I was just pointing out a possibility that I found.
From OP's code I too believe that he is terminating the thread created with AfxBeginThread. I think debugging is helpful for him to ensure that which thread is being executed.

That's not what you were saying in your first message and what this all discussion is about. This is what you said and on what Carlo was arguing with you:
It seems like you are terminating the same thread that is executing the specified code...

I really didn't get you...

I intended that the thread which executes the following code is being terminated by itself.
int ret = ::TerminateThread(pThread->m_hThread,NULL);
This can be equal to
::TerminateThread( GetCurrentThread(), 0 );
and can cause the issue specified by the OP.
If I am wrong please tell me...
