createObjectAdapter() attempts to connect to 127.0.0.1:0

[Chucko]

An Ice novice here. I'm using Ice 3.4.1 on Mac OS X 10.6.7.

I am trying to get my first Ice C++ code to run. I'm having trouble in Ice::Communicator::createObjectAdapter(). I've specified the endpoints as "tcp -p 13011", and it seems to open the correct port on the Ethernet/WiFi interfaces. However, it seems to be using port 0 on the loopback interface. Any suggestions?

Here is a transcript with Ice.Trace.Network set to 2 and Ice.PrintStackTraces set to 1:

Welcome Chuck!

It would help us to see the configuration properties you're using for this program. Can you paste those?

Thanks,
Mark

I found the problem: the string I was using to contact the IceStorm topic manager was truncated in command line processing.

Sorry to bother you.
