Description

In order to allow an ORB instance to be shared by multiple services/references with Corba bindings, two new modules should be created.

• Host-corba should define a Host interface for Corba ORBs, allowing Corba service binding providers to register Corba servants with an ORB.
• Host-corba-jdk should implement that Host interface using the JDK ORB.

Another Host-corba-yoko could be created later for an implementation of that Host interface using Yoko, which may be handy in a Geronimo environment for example.

That approach is similar to the approach we've taken for HTTP with:

• Host-http the extension interface for HTTP hosts
• Host-jetty and Host-tomcat, implementations using Jetty and Tomcat.
