CORBA would be pretty useless if you always had to run the object
implementation (server) and the client that uses the
server in the same process. Here is how to separate the client and
server parts of the example in the previous section into two processes
running on the same or on different machines
.
One problem you have to cope with when moving object implementation and client into separate address spaces is how the client gets to know the server. The solution to this problem is called a naming service.
