1 | The Implementation Repository contains information that allows the ORB to locate and activate implementations of objects. |
2 | Ordinarily, installation of implementations and control of policies related to the activation and execution of object implementations is done through operations on the Implementation Repository. |
3 | In addition to its role in the functioning of the ORB, the Implementation Repository is a common place to store additional information associated with implementations of ORB objects. (e.g., debugging information, administrative control, resource allocation, security, etc) |
4 | The Implementation Repository supports the implementation of object servers. It is not needed by clients in order to access servers. |
