     * component. To get around all this we are adding some methods on
     * this till we think of some standard way to do this. The problem
     * is that the deployer should be able to call this as opposed to
     * the home calling it as soon as the component is created.
     *
     * All these operations are called in the order mentioned, ie. the
     * deployer calls ciao_preactivate () on all components, then
     * ciao_activate and then ciao_postactivate (). The speciality is
     * that these operations would be invoked on every target object
     * before the next call is made. It is similar to the way
     * portable interceptors work, trying to get everything onto the
     * flow stack, but differ in the intention.
