    * it shall call each registered <code>ORBInitializer</code>, passing it
    * an <code>ORBInitInfo</code> object which is used to register its
    * Interceptor.
    * <p>
    * <b>Registering ORB Initializers in Java</b>
    * <p>
    * ORBInitializers are registered via Java ORB properties.
    * <p>
    * The property names are of the form:
    *   <blockquote><code>
    *     org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.&lt;Service&gt;
    *   </code></blockquote>
    * where <code>&lt;Service&gt;</code> is the string name of a class
    * which implements
    *   <blockquote><code>
    *     org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializer
    *   </code></blockquote>
    * To avoid name collisions, the reverse DNS name convention should be
    * used. For example, if company X has three initializers, it could define
    * the following properties:
    * <ul>
    *   <li><code>
    *     org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.com.x.Init1
    *   </code></li>
    *   <li><code>
    *     org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.com.x.Init2
    *   </code></li>
    *   <li><code>
    *     org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.com.x.Init3
    *   </code></li>
    * </ul>
    * During ORB.init, these ORB properties which begin with
    * <code>org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass</code> shall be
    * collected, the <code>&lt;Service&gt;</code> portion of each property
    * shall be extracted, an object shall be instantiated with the
    * <code>&lt;Service&gt;</code> string as its class name, and the
    * <code>pre_init</code> and <code>post_init</code> methods shall be
    * called on that object. If there are any exceptions, the ORB shall
    * ignore them and proceed.
    * <p>
    * <b><i>Example</i></b>
    * <p>
    * A client-side logging service written by company X, for example, may
    * have the following ORBInitializer implementation:
    * <code><pre>
    * package com.x.logging;
    *
    * import org.omg.PortableInterceptor.Interceptor;
    * import org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializer;
    * import org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitInfo;
    *
    * public class LoggingService implements ORBInitializer {
    *     void pre_init( ORBInitInfo info ) {
    *         // Instantiate the Logging Service s Interceptor.
    *         Interceptor interceptor = new LoggingInterceptor();
    *
    *         // Register the Logging Service s Interceptor.
    *         info.add_client_request_interceptor( interceptor );
    *     }
    *
    *     void post_init( ORBInitInfo info ) {
    *         // This service does not need two init points.
    *     }
    * }
    * </pre></code>
    * To run a program called <code>MyApp</code> using this logging
    * service, the user could type:
    *   <blockquote><code>
    *     java
    *-Dorg.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.com.x.Logging.LoggingService
    *     MyApp
    *   </code></blockquote>
    * <p>
    * <b>Notes about Registering Interceptors</b>
    * <p>
    * Request Interceptors are registered on a per-ORB basis.
    * <p>
    * To achieve virtual per-object Interceptors, query the policies on the
    * target from within the interception points to determine whether they
    * should do any work.
    * <p>
    * To achieve virtual per-POA Interceptors, instantiate each POA with a
    * different ORB. While Interceptors may be ordered administratively,
    * there is no concept of order with respect to the registration of
    * Interceptors. Request Interceptors are concerned with service contexts.
    * Service contexts have no order, so there is no purpose for request
    * Interceptors to have an order. IOR Interceptors are concerned with
    * tagged components. Tagged components also have no order, so there
    * is no purpose for IOR Interceptors to have an order.
    * <p>
    * Registration code should avoid using the ORB (i.e., calling
    * <code>ORB.init</code> with the provided <code>orb_id</code>). Since
    * registration occurs during ORB initialization, results of invocations
    * on this ORB while it is in this state are undefined.
    *
    * @see ORBInitInfo

      * <code>ORBInitInfo.register_initial_reference</code>.

      * Calling the <code>post_init</code> operations is not the final

      * ORB-mediated call is made from within <code>post_init</code>, no
      * request interceptors will be invoked on that call.

      * created, no IOR interceptors will be invoked.
