ORB

Synopsis

The ORB is at the heart of the CORBA API. The ORB class provides CORBA clients and server objects access to the basic CORBA functions needed to engage in remote object operations. The ORB class provides a set of static init() methods that let you initialize a reference to an ORB, provides access to initial objects and service through its resolve_initial_references() method, and provides constructor methods that allow you to create key objects needed to perform remote method requests, like Any objects and NamedValues. The ORB also allows you to convert CORBA object references to a portable stringified form, and back again, using its object_to_string() and string_to_object() methods.
