• Create an ORB object.
• Obtain one or more initial object references, typically at least a naming context.

• Creating an ORB Object
  • Creating an ORB for an Application
  • Creating an ORB for an Applet
  • Arguments to ORB.init()
  • System Properties
• Obtaining Initial Object References
  • Stringified Object References
  • Getting References from an ORB
