Naming Service
The Naming Service is the most commonly used service in CORBA, since it provides the principle way for clients to find objects on the network. Remote object references can be bound to names within the Naming Service, and clients can access these object references over the network by asking for them by name from the Naming Service. There are more details on the Naming Service available in Chapter 4.
A NamingContext represents a directory or
subdirectory of named objects. This interface can be used to bind,
lookup, and unbind objects and subcontexts within the naming
directory. The names of objects within a
NamingContext are composed of
NameComponent arrays. Browsing through the
contents of a NamingContext can be done with a
BindingIterator.
