 /**
  * A class providing APIs for the CORBA Object Request Broker
  * features.  The <code>ORB</code> 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</code> 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</code>, are typically used with the <code>Dynamic Invocation
  * Interface</code> (DII) and the <code>Dynamic Skeleton Interface</code>
  * (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</code>
  * <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</code>
  *   <li><code>Any</code>
  *   <li><code>NamedValue</code>
  *   <li><code>Context</code>
  *   <li><code>Environment</code>
  *   <li>lists (such as <code>NVList</code>) containing these objects
  *   </ul>
  * <li> sends multiple messages in the DII
  * </OL>
  *
  * <P>
  * The <code>ORB</code> 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</code> using one of
  * three <code>init</code> 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()</code></TD></TR>
  * </TABLE>
  * <P>
  * These properties allow a different vendor's <code>ORB</code>
  * 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:<P>
  *
  * <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&nbsp;IDL
  *         implementation)
  * </OL>
  * <P>
  * Note that Java&nbsp;IDL provides a default implementation for the
  * fully-functional ORB and for the Singleton ORB.  When the method
  * <code>init</code> is given no parameters, the default Singleton
  * ORB is returned.  When the method <code>init</code> is given parameters
  * but no ORB class is specified, the Java&nbsp;IDL ORB implementation
  * is returned.
  * <P>
  * The following code fragment creates an <code>ORB</code> 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</code> object
  * for an application.  The parameter <code>args</code>
  * represents the arguments supplied to the application's <code>main</code>
  * 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&nbsp;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</code> 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&nbsp;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.

      * <P>
      * For example, the following IDL type declaration contains recursion:
      * <PRE>
      *    Struct Node {
      *        Sequence&lt;Node&gt; subnodes;
      *    };
      * </PRE>
      * <P>
      * To create a TypeCode for struct Node, you would invoke the TypeCode creation
      * operations as shown below:
      * <PRE>
      * String nodeID = "IDL:Node:1.0";
      * TypeCode recursiveSeqTC = orb.create_sequence_tc(0, orb.create_recursive_tc(nodeID));
      * StructMember[] members = { new StructMember("subnodes", recursiveSeqTC, null) };
      * TypeCode structNodeTC = orb.create_struct_tc(nodeID, "Node", members);
      * </PRE>
      * <P>
      * Also note that the following is an illegal IDL type declaration:
      * <PRE>
      *    Struct Node {
      *        Node next;
      *    };
      * </PRE>
      * <P>
      * Recursive types can only appear within sequences which can be empty.
      * That way marshaling problems, when transmitting the struct in an Any, are avoided.
