* Registers the interceptor. * * Direct interceptor registration would open a security hole. Hence instead the * interceptors from the ORB.init(..) method, passing the names of the needed * initialized classes via properties. *
** These property names are of the form *
*org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.<Service>
* where <Service> is the string name of a class, which implements * {@link ORBInitializer}. DuringORB.init(..)
, the properties
* begining with org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass are
* collected, the <Service> portion of each property is extracted,
* the initialiser is instantiated with the <Service> string as its
* class name and then pre_init
and post_init
* (defined in {@link ORBInitializerOperations}) are called on that initializer.
* The runtime exceptions, thrown by these two methods, are ignored.

* * Then, one of the used set of properties then must contain the property, named * * org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.gnu.x.Logging.LoggingService * . * The value of the property is ignored and may empty string. The * agreed locations, where this property will be searched for, are: *
* 1. The properties parameter in the ORB.init(..), if any.
* 2. The System properties.
* 3. The orb.properties file located in the user.home directory (if any).
* 4. The orb.properties file located in the java.home/lib directory (if any).
*
* The applet parameters and command line arguments are not scanned * for the possible initializers. *
** Interceptors are registered on a per-ORB basis. The virtual per-object * Interceptors can be simulated by checking the policies on the target from * within the interception points to determine whether they should work. The * virtual per-POA Interceptors can be obtained instantiating each POA such with * a different ORB. *
** The registration code should not call directly any methods on the ORB being * registered. *
** The new interceptors cannot be registered after the ORB.init(..) returns. *
