4.6.1 Introduction

As of release 8.0, the Oracle Tuxedo ORB supports the CORBA Naming Service bootstrapping mechanism (referred to in this document as the Interoperable Naming Service), as specified in Chapters 4 and 13 of the CORBA Specification revision 2.4.2.

This support enables ORBs that implement the Interoperable Naming Service (INS) bootstrapping mechanism to query the Oracle Tuxedo server-side ORB to get object references to initial objects such as FactoryFinder and to PrincipalAuthenticator to the Oracle Tuxedo environment. This support along with client support for interoperable initial object references enables clients to use the INS bootstrapping mechanism instead of the Oracle bootstrapping mechanism.

Note:

The CORBA C++ client provided with Oracle Tuxedo software may use the INS bootstrapping mechanism, however, for performance reasons, this is not recommended.
