Servant managers

• Used when an explicit servant registration is difficult or impossible

  • e.g. dealing with too many objects
  • or finding objects dynamically

• Servant Activator

  • Servant incarnate (in ObjectId oid, in POA adapter)
  • void etherealize (in ObjectId oid, in POA adapter, …)
  • the resulting servant retains in the Active Object Map

• Servant Locator

  • Servant preinvoke (in ObjectId oid, in POA adapter, in CORBA::Identifier operation, out Cookie the_cookie)
  • void postinvoke (in ObjectId oid, in POA adapter, in CORBA::Identifier operation, out Cookie the_cookie,…)
  • the resulting servant does not appear in the AOM
