The ORB class also provides * "pluggable ORB implementation" APIs that allow another vendor's ORB * implementation to be used. *

* An ORB makes it possible for CORBA objects to communicate * with each other by connecting objects making requests (clients) with * objects servicing requests (servers). *

* * The ORB class, which * encapsulates generic CORBA functionality, does the following: * (Note that items 5 and 6, which include most of the methods in * the class ORB, are typically used with the Dynamic Invocation * Interface (DII) and the Dynamic Skeleton Interface * (DSI). * These interfaces may be used by a developer directly, but * most commonly they are used by the ORB internally and are * not seen by the general programmer.) *

    *
  1. initializes the ORB implementation by supplying values for * predefined properties and environmental parameters *
  2. obtains initial object references to services such as * the NameService using the method resolve_initial_references *
  3. converts object references to strings and back *
  4. connects the ORB to a servant (an instance of a CORBA object * implementation) and disconnects the ORB from a servant *
  5. creates objects such as * *
  6. sends multiple messages in the DII *
* *

* The ORB class can be used to obtain references to objects * implemented anywhere on the network. *

* An application or applet gains access to the CORBA environment * by initializing itself into an ORB using one of * three init methods. Two of the three methods use the properties * (associations of a name with a value) shown in the * table below.
* * * * * * * *
Property Name Property Value
Standard Java CORBA Properties:
org.omg.CORBA.ORBClassclass name of an ORB implementation
org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClassclass name of the ORB returned by init()
*

* These properties allow a different vendor's ORB * implementation to be "plugged in." *

* When an ORB instance is being created, the class name of the ORB * implementation is located using * the following standard search order:

* *

    *
  1. check in Applet parameter or application string array, if any * *
  2. check in properties parameter, if any * *
  3. check in the System properties * *
  4. check in the orb.properties file located in the user.home * directory (if any) * *
  5. check in the orb.properties file located in the java.home/lib * directory (if any) * *
  6. fall back on a hardcoded default behavior (use the Java IDL * implementation) *
*

* Note that Java IDL provides a default implementation for the * fully-functional ORB and for the Singleton ORB. When the method * init is given no parameters, the default Singleton * ORB is returned. When the method init is given parameters * but no ORB class is specified, the Java IDL ORB implementation * is returned. *

* The following code fragment creates an ORB object * initialized with the default ORB Singleton. * This ORB has a * restricted implementation to prevent malicious applets from doing * anything beyond creating typecodes. * It is called a singleton * because there is only one instance for an entire virtual machine. *

 *    ORB orb = ORB.init();
 * 
*

* The following code fragment creates an ORB object * for an application. The parameter args * represents the arguments supplied to the application's main * method. Since the property specifies the ORB class to be * "SomeORBImplementation", the new ORB will be initialized with * that ORB implementation. If p had been null, * and the arguments had not specified an ORB class, * the new ORB would have been * initialized with the default Java IDL implementation. *

 *    Properties p = new Properties();
 *    p.put("org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass", "SomeORBImplementation");
 *    ORB orb = ORB.init(args, p);
 * 
*

* The following code fragment creates an ORB object * for the applet supplied as the first parameter. If the given * applet does not specify an ORB class, the new ORB will be * initialized with the default Java IDL implementation. *

 *    ORB orb = ORB.init(myApplet, null);
