JacORB: Latin characters in UserException are not supported

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

An Orbix client consumes a Corba interface deployed within JBoss through JacORB.
The Corba implementation raises an UserException with a specific message using latin characters (e.g. 'XXXX à XXXXX').
The message received by C++ is not well encoded (e.g. Ã instead of à).

Environment

  • JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.1.0
  • Operating System codeset is WINDOWS-1252. JacORB is setup to use UTF-8 as native code set
  • Orbix is setup to used WINDOWS-1252 as native code set and UTF-8 as Conversion Code Set
  • The negotiated Transmission Code Set should be UTF-8
