20 * @brief This class provides the server application with helper methods
22 * The various methods required by the server application for
23 * utilizing the ServantActivator and ServantLocator interfaces of
24 * the Servant Manager are implemented by this class. These
25 * include initialisation procedures of the ServantActivator and
26 * ServantLocator, and creation of POAs with emphasis on the
27 * servant retention policy.
38 /// Initialisation of the ORB and poa.
39 int init (int argc
, ACE_TCHAR
**argv
);
42 * This method creates a POA from the root_poa with emphasis being
43 * on the servant_retention_policy which decides the use of the
44 * ServantActivator or ServantLocator interfaces. The
45 * servent_retention_policy value is 1 for the RETAIN policy and 0
46 * for the NONRETAIN policy.
