Hi Eric.

Normally a CORBA object must be up and running before you can get to it. If
you want your server to be started up on request, you can register it with
an Implementation Repository. I think that would give you pretty much the
same behavior as COM.

You can find a nice paper by Michi Henning on the Implementation Repository
at http://www.triodia.com/staff/michi/cacm.pdf.
