CORBA 2.6 Programmer's Guide for C++

Controls whether wchar and wstring are enabled over GIOP 1.0. The key is
allow_wchar_wstring_in_1_0, and the key value is true or false. The default is false.
Since the default is false, you must set this configuration value if you want NonStop CORBA 2.6
to allow wchar and wstring to be transmitted over GIOP 1.0. Many vendors, including NonStop
CORBA 2.3 B13, allow wchar and wstring to be transmitted over GIOP 1.0. NonStop CORBA 2.6
also allows wchar and wstring to be transmitted over GIOP 1.0. If the
allow_wchar_wstring_in_1_0 key value is set to false, marshalling exceptions are thrown
if GIOP 1.0 is in effect. If the allow_wchar_wstring_in_1_0 key value is set to true,
marshalling exceptions are not thrown if GIOP 1.0 is in effect.
wchar_native_code_set code set
Controls whether the C10 C++ ORB publishes UCS-2 or UTF-16 as its wide character native code
set. The key is wchar_native_code_set, and the key value is UCS-2 or UTF-16. The
default is UCS-2. Interoperation with IONA E2A ASP 5.1 (or any other ORB that implements
UCS-2 incorrectly) is the only reason to use UTF-16. IONA has fixed their handling of wstring
endian-ness in ASP 6.0, so UTF-16 is only required for ASP 5.x.
