I haven't moved to Java 11 yet but I always had problems with the Java CORBA implementation anyway as it was incomplete and didn't support all the Object methods defined in the standards, didn't support ssliop, etc. etc. I always replaced it by placing th JacORB OMG jar in the endorsed directory and setting the system property to pont to the JacORB orb:
-Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBClass=org.jacorb.orb.ORB
-Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass=org.jacorb.orb.ORBSingleton
BTW. I do not agree that ""There is no significant interest in developing modern applications with CORBA in Java" after all what is J2EE sitting on?
