Interface AdapterActivator

All Superinterfaces:

public interface AdapterActivator
extends LocalInterface, AdapterActivatorOperations, IDLEntity

     Adapter activators are associated with POAs. An adapter activator
     supplies a POA with the ability to create child POAs on demand, as
     a side-effect of receiving a request that names the child POA (or
     one of its children), or when find_POA is called with an activate
     parameter value of TRUE.
     

     An application server that creates all
     its needed POAs at the beginning of execution does not need to use
     or provide an adapter activator; it is necessary only for the case
     in which POAs need to be created during request processing.  While
     a request from the POA to an adapter activator is in progress, all
     requests to objects managed by the new POA (or any descendant
     POAs) will be queued. This serialization allows the adapter
     activator to complete any initialization of the new POA before
     requests are delivered to that POA.
