[Ace-users] Re: [tao-users] Discovering the reference/identity of the event sourceand method invoker

[Johnny Willemsen]

Hi,
 
Thanks for using the PRF form. CORBA doesn't define a standardized way to
retrieve information from the client, you could put that information in the
event itself.

Hi, 

I sent this question before to the CIAO list but I just realized that maybe
any TAO user can help with this subject too once the request mechanism is
the same and I can access the component ORB and POA from a component. 

Is it possible to discover the object reference of a event source that sent
an event to a event sink through its push method? Is it possible to discover
the reference of the component (client rule) that invoked an component facet
method? 

Thank you.
