/**
* A class providing APIs for the CORBA Object Request Broker
* features. The {@code ORB} class also provides
* "pluggable ORB implementation" APIs that allow another vendor's ORB
* implementation to be used.
* <P>
* An ORB makes it possible for CORBA objects to communicate
* with each other by connecting objects making requests (clients) with
* objects servicing requests (servers).
* <P>
*
* The {@code 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 {@code ORB}, are typically used with the
* {@code Dynamic Invocation Interface} (DII) and
* the {@code 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.)
* <OL>
* <li> initializes the ORB implementation by supplying values for
* predefined properties and environmental parameters
* <li> obtains initial object references to services such as
* the NameService using the method {@code resolve_initial_references}
* <li> converts object references to strings and back
* <li> connects the ORB to a servant (an instance of a CORBA object
* implementation) and disconnects the ORB from a servant
* <li> creates objects such as
* <ul>
* <li>{@code TypeCode}
* <li>{@code Any}
* <li>{@code NamedValue}
* <li>{@code Context}
* <li>{@code Environment}
* <li>lists (such as {@code NVList}) containing these objects
* </ul>
* <li> sends multiple messages in the DII
* </OL>
*
* <P>
* The {@code ORB} class can be used to obtain references to objects
* implemented anywhere on the network.
* <P>
* An application or applet gains access to the CORBA environment
* by initializing itself into an {@code ORB} using one of
* three {@code init} methods. Two of the three methods use the properties
* (associations of a name with a value) shown in the
* table below.<BR>
* <TABLE BORDER=1 SUMMARY="Standard Java CORBA Properties">
* <TR><TH>Property Name</TH> <TH>Property Value</TH></TR>
* <CAPTION>Standard Java CORBA Properties:</CAPTION>
* <TR><TD>org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass</TD>
* <TD>class name of an ORB implementation</TD></TR>
* <TR><TD>org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass</TD>
* <TD>class name of the ORB returned by {@code init()}</TD></TR>
* </TABLE>
* <P>
* These properties allow a different vendor's {@code ORB}
* implementation to be "plugged in."
* <P>
* When an ORB instance is being created, the class name of the ORB
* implementation is located using
* the following standard search order:
*
* <OL>
* <LI>check in Applet parameter or application string array, if any
*
* <LI>check in properties parameter, if any
*
* <LI>check in the System properties
*
* <LI>check in the orb.properties file located in the user.home
* directory (if any)
*
* <LI>check in the orb.properties file located in the java.home/lib
* directory (if any)
*
* <LI>fall back on a hardcoded default behavior (use the Java IDL
* implementation)
* </OL>
* <P>
* Note that Java IDL provides a default implementation for the
* fully-functional ORB and for the Singleton ORB. When the method
* {@code init} is given no parameters, the default Singleton
* ORB is returned. When the method {@code init} is given parameters
* but no ORB class is specified, the Java IDL ORB implementation
* is returned.
* <P>
* The following code fragment creates an {@code 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.
* <PRE>
* ORB orb = ORB.init();
* </PRE>
* <P>
* The following code fragment creates an {@code ORB} object
* for an application. The parameter {@code args}
* represents the arguments supplied to the application's {@code 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.
* <PRE>
* Properties p = new Properties();
* p.put("org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass", "SomeORBImplementation");
* ORB orb = ORB.init(args, p);
* </PRE>
* <P>
* The following code fragment creates an {@code 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.
* <PRE>
* ORB orb = ORB.init(myApplet, null);
* </PRE>
* <P>
* An application or applet can be initialized in one or more ORBs.
* ORB initialization is a bootstrap call into the CORBA world.
*
*
* @implNote
* When a singleton ORB is configured via the system property,
* or orb.properties, it will be
* located, and loaded via the system class loader.
* Thus, where appropriate, it is necessary that
* the classes for this alternative ORBSingleton are available on the application's class path.
* It should be noted that the singleton ORB is system wide.
*
* When a per-application ORB is created via the 2-arg init methods,
* then it will be located using the thread context class loader.
*
* @since JDK1.2
