Those port are CorbaPort-s, "X" marked are holding Consumer and "O" marked are holding Provider of an interface, having one getter and one setter function. The component on the right (PoC_VirCA) is supposed to provide information for every other component by getters (it does), and utilize setter functions of connected components, thus update their state. But only if needed! We want to update only "subscribed" components, so want to define which active connection should be used for updating.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)">But maybe my example was a little bit irrelevant in this context, sorry for that! There is a lot of part in code, which can lead to this (now I guess buggy) measurements.<br>

For instance, in SimpleService example project, can I call function on a specific MyServiceProvider from MyServiceConsumer if there are multiple of them?</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)">Meanwhile, we have further experimental setups, which shows, that we can address providers, but it's a bit complicated. We defined ConnectionListener for the Consumer and when "on connected" call-back function is called, we store a copy(!) of the Consumer in an std::map, using the connection_id for key value. Later, we can use this map (containing copies of the same Consumer) for calling functions on specified connections.</div>

<br></div><div style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)">Recently I made an experimental setup in our system, and it seems to me, that if I connect multiple provider to one consumer I can call function only one of the providers/implementations.<br>
In attached image I displayed the function call counts in console window. In the relation of one provider to multiple consumer function was called twice as much as in opposite direction. Thus I suggest, that when I connect multiple provider to one consumer only one of the providers is taking action.</div>
<div style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)">My questions are:</div><div style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><ul><li>
Is it really the case? If I connect multiple provider to one consumer only one of them will answer?</li><li>Is it possible to declare which provider's function should be called if a consumer has many of them (thus choose between implementations)? </li>
