Multiple issues expert subject February 2009 refimprove May 2007 context February 2009 In the general context of CORBA objects and Servant CORBA servants , incarnation is the act of associating a servant with a CORBA object so that it may service requests. In other words, incarnation provides a concrete servant form for the virtual CORBA object and the idea thereof . Activation and deactivation refer only to CORBA objects, while the terms incarnation and etherealization refer to servants. However, the lifetimes of objects and servants are independent. You always incarnate a servant before calling activate object , but the reverse is also possible, create reference activates an object without incarnating a servant, and servant incarnation is later done on demand with a Servant Manager.

Unreferenced date December 2009 A servant , in CORBA , is the invocation target containing methods for handling the Java remote method invocation remote method invocations . In the newer CORBA versions, the remote object on the server side is split into the object that is exposed to remote invocations and servant to which the former part delegates the method calls . It can be one servant per remote object , or the same servant can support several possibly all objects, associated with the given Portable Object Adapter . The servant for each object can be set or found once and forever servant activation or dynamically chosen each time the method on that object is invoked servant location . Both servant locator and servant activator can forward the calls to another server. In total, this system provides a very powerful means to balance the load, distributing requests between several machines. In the object oriented languages, both remote object and its servant are objects from the viewpoint of the object oriented programming.

Orphan date January 2010 The ACSI CORBA mapping is a mapping from the standard IEC61850 abstract specification of communication service to a concrete communication infrastructure based on CORBA specifications. This mapping was submitted to the IEC Technical Committee in charge of the specification of other mappings TC57 . This standard proposes an asbtract definition for electrical system communications for control and protection that is mapped into a set of different protocols. The Abstract Communication Service Interface ACSI specified by IEC 61850 needs to be mapped to a real not abstract Specific Communication Service to be usable by application developers. This mapping of IEC 61850 ACSI to CORBA defines how the concepts, objects and services of ACSI can be implemented using CORBA distributed objects technology, allowing interoperability among substation functions and devices of different manufacturers. It can serve as a basic guideline to provide a real implementation of IEC 61850 models over real distributed object platforms, using CORBA technology as support for distribution. CORBA is a middleware service rather than a communication service, providing other types of functionality and methodology that go beyond those of pure communication services for example automatic generation of skeletons and proxies, interface repositories, server object management, etc .

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 An Interoperable Object Reference IOR is a CORBA or RMI IIOP Reference computer science reference that uniquely identified an object computer science object on a remote CORBA server. IORs can be transmitted in binary over TCP IP via the General Inter ORB Protocol the encoding may be endianness big endian or little endian , or serialized into a string of hexadecimal digits prefixed by the string code IOR code to facilitate transport by non CORBA mechanisms such as HTTP , File Transfer Protocol FTP , and e mail . The internal structure of an IOR may contain multiple components. Each component is identified by its integer code and has its own binary format. The codes are assigned by the Object Management Group . The typical IOR normally contains the IP address of the remote host, the number of the remote port on that the CORBA server is listening, a string defining the class of the remote object on which the methods will be invoked, and the object key that is used by the server ORB to identify the object. It is possible to register special objects IOR interceptors that can add the needed specific components to the IOR being created by the particular Object Request Broker ORB .

Orphan date February 2009 The Dynamic Invocation Interface DII is an API which allows dynamic construction of CORBA object computer science object invocations. It is used at compiler compile time when a client computing client does not have knowledge about the object it wants to invoke. With this interface an argument list is marshalled, a function is named, and a request for service is sent to the object server. DII will usually have an asynchronous mode of operation. The following types of applications would require or benefit from DII browsers for CORBA services, application browsers, bridges protocol converters , applications accessing huge numbers of different interfaces, monitoring applications. DII also provides a deferred synchronous invocation. Deferred synchronous invocations are submitted without having to wait for a response. This is similar to a one way operation except return values and out parameters are possible, but must be polling computer science polled for.

Here is an example of IDL union type definition pre union Register switch char case a case b short AX case c long EAX default octet AL pre Effective value of the Register type may contain AX as selected field, but discriminator value may be either a or b and it is stored in memory separately. Therefore, IDL logically separates information about currently selected field name and union effective value from information about current discriminator value.
