Used by the ORB to obtain complete type information from the servant.

  Used by the ORB to obtain complete type
information from the servant.
Returns: list of type information for the object.
Parameters:
- poa - POA with which the servant is associated.
- objectId - is the id corresponding to the object associated with this servant.

  Returns the root POA from the ORB instance associated with the servant.

  Returns the
root POA from the ORB instance associated with the servant.
Subclasses may override this method to return a different POA.
Returns: default_POA the POA associated with the Servant.

  Gets the ORB vendor-specific implementation of PortableServer::Servant.

  Gets the ORB vendor-specific implementation of
PortableServer::Servant.
Returns: _delegate the ORB vendor-specific implementation of PortableServer::Servant.

  Returns an InterfaceDef object as a CORBA::Object that defines the runtime type of the CORBA::Object implemented by the Servant.

  Returns an InterfaceDef object as a CORBA::Object that defines the runtime type of the CORBA::Object implemented by the Servant. The invoker of _get_interface_def must narrow the result to an InterfaceDef in order to use it.

This default implementation of _get_interface_def() can be overridden by derived servants if the default behavior is not adequate. As defined in the CORBA 2.3.1 specification, section 11.3.1, the default behavior of _get_interface_def() is to use the most derived interface of a static servant or the most derived interface retrieved from a dynamic servant to obtain the InterfaceDef. This behavior must be supported by the Delegate that implements the Servant.
Returns: get_interface_def an InterfaceDef object as a CORBA::Object that defines the runtime type of the CORBA::Object implemented by the Servant.

  Checks to see if the specified repository_id is present on the list returned by _all_interfaces() or is the repository_id for the generic CORBA Object.

  Checks to see if the specified repository_id is present
on the list returned by _all_interfaces() or is the
repository_id for the generic CORBA Object.
Returns: is_a boolean indicating whether the specified repository_id is in the repository list or is same as a generic CORBA object.
Parameters:
- repository_id - the repository_id to be checked in the repository list or against the id of generic CORBA objects.

  Checks for the existence of an Object.

  Checks for the existence of an
Object.
The Servant provides a default implementation of
_non_existent() that can be overridden by derived servants.
Returns: non_existent true if that object does not exist, false otherwise.

  Allows easy execution of common methods, equivalent to calling PortableServer::Current::get_object_id.

  Allows easy execution of
common methods, equivalent
to calling PortableServer::Current::get_object_id.
Returns: object_id the Object ID associated with this servant.

  Returns the instance of the ORB currently associated with the Servant (convenience method).

  Returns the instance of the ORB
currently associated with the Servant (convenience method).
Returns: orb the instance of the ORB currently associated with the Servant.

  Allows easy execution of common methods, equivalent to PortableServer::Current:get_POA.

  Allows easy execution of common methods, equivalent to
PortableServer::Current:get_POA.
Returns: poa POA associated with the servant.

  Supports the Java ORB portability interfaces by providing a method for classes that support ORB portability through delegation to set their delegate.

  Supports the Java ORB portability
interfaces by providing a method for classes that support
ORB portability through delegation to set their delegate.
Parameters:
- delegate - ORB vendor-specific implementation of the PortableServer::Servant.

  Allows the servant to obtain the object reference for the target CORBA object it is incarnating for that request.

  Allows the servant to obtain the object reference for
the target CORBA object it is incarnating for that request.
Returns: this_object Object reference associated with the request.

  Allows the servant to obtain the object reference for the target CORBA Object it is incarnating for that request.

  Allows the servant to obtain the object reference for
the target CORBA Object it is incarnating for that request.
Returns: _this_object reference associated with the request.
Parameters:
- orb - ORB with which the servant is associated.
