55 * The servant is responsible for handling the method invocation on the
56 * target object. It can be one servant per object, or the same servant can
57 * support several (possibly all) objects, associated with the given POA.
58 * </p> <p>
59 * Till JDK 1.3 inclusive, a typical IDL to java compiler generates an
60 * implementation base (name pattern _*ImplBase.java) that is derived from the
61 * {@link org.omg.CORBA.portable.ObjectImpl}. Since JDK 1.4 the implementation
62 * base is derived from the Servant, also having a different name pattern
63 * (*POA.java). This suffix may be confusing, as the servant itself is
64 * <i>not</i> POA nor it is derived from it.
65 * </p><p>
66 * In both cases, the implementation base also inherits an interface, containing
67 * definitions of the application specific methods. The application programmer
68 * writes a child of the implementation base, implementing these methods
69 * for the application-specific functionality. The ObjectImpl is connected
70 * directly to the ORB. The Servant is connected to POA that can be obtained
71 * from the ORB.
72 * </p><p>
73 * If the servant is connected to more than one object, the exact object
74 * being currently served can be identified with {@link #_object_id}.
75 * </p><p>
76 * The derivativ of Servant, being directly connected to serve requests,
77 * must inherit either from {@link org.omg.CORBA.portable.InvokeHandler}
78 * or from {@link org.omg.PortableServer.DynamicImplementation}).
79 * </p><p>
80 * The Servant type is a CORBA <code>native</code> type.
