-  //   A class to encapsulate all the ways of specifying targets.
-  //
-  // = DESCRIPTION
-  //   This is a sort of auxillary class. The motivation behind this
-  //   is GIOP 1.2 althought I foresee other messaging protocols doing
-  //   something similar. The Invocation classes (client side) were
-  //   passing the object key that they had extracted from the
-  //   profiles with every invocation. This extraction would be done
-  //   based on the policies that are specified for the client side
-  //   ORB. Further the client side  ORB need not just send the object
-  //   key. They can send send the IOP::TaggedProfile or IOP::IOR
-  //   profile. So I am putting these possibilites in this class and
-  //   pass it to the messaging layer. It would extract what is
-  //   required.
