/**
 * <p>
 * The servant is responsible for handling the method invocation on the
 * target object. It can be one servant per object, or the same servant can
 * support several (possibly all) objects, associated with the given POA.
 * </p> <p>
 * Till JDK 1.3 inclusive, a typical IDL to java compiler generates an
 * implementation base (name pattern _*ImplBase.java) that is derived from the
 * {@link org.omg.CORBA.portable.ObjectImpl}. Since JDK 1.4 the implementation
 * base is derived from the Servant, also having a different name pattern
 * (*POA.java). This suffix may be confusing, as the servant itself is
 * <i>not</i> POA nor it is derived from it.
 * </p><p>
 * In both cases, the implementation base also inherits an interface, containing
 * definitions of the application specific methods. The application programmer
 * writes a child of the implementation base, implementing these methods
 * for the application-specific functionality. The ObjectImpl is connected
 * directly to the ORB. The Servant is connected to POA that can be obtained
 * from the ORB.
 * </p><p>
 * If the servant is connected to more than one object, the exact object
 * being currently served can be identified with {@link #_object_id}.
 * </p><p>
 * The derivativ of Servant, being directly connected to serve requests,
 * must inherit either from {@link org.omg.CORBA.portable.InvokeHandler}
 * or from {@link org.omg.PortableServer.DynamicImplementation}).
 * </p><p>
 * The Servant type is a CORBA <code>native</code> type.
 * </p>
