/**
 *  @file    Server_Main.h
 *
 *  $Id$
 *
 *  Declares a generic object that acts as "main" for a CORBA server.
 *  @author Dale Wilson <wilson_d@ociweb.com>
 *
 *  This object supports creation of a relatively simple CORBA server.
 *  The object implements "main" for a process.
 *  A single servant is created and initialized as the process begins
 *  execution.  The lifetime of this initial servant is the lifetime of
 *  the process.
 *  The servant is free to create other servants as necessary.
 *  The servant can capture command line options.
 *  A callback method in the ORB event loop allows the servant to act
 *  asynchronously if necessary.
 *  The callback method allows the servant to request process termination
 *  and specify the status to be returned from the process.
 *
 *  The application should create a C/C++ main that looks something like:
 *    #include <tao/Utils/Server_Main.h>
 *    #include "Xyzzy_i.h"
 *    int ACE_TMAIN (int argc, ACE_TCHAR *argv[])
 *    {
 *      Server_Main<Xyzzy_i> servant ("Xyzzy");
 *      return servant.run(argc, argv);
 *    }
 *
 *  The servant implementation (Xyzzy_i in this case) must implement
 *  the following methods:
 *      Xyzzy_i (); // null constructor
 *      ~Xyzzy_i (); // destructor
 *      int parse_args (int argc, char * argv[]);
 *      int init (CORBA::ORB_ptr orb );
 *      int idle(int &result);
 *      int fini (void);
 *      const char * identity () const;
 *
 *      parse_args, self_register, self_unregister return 0 if ok, nonzero for error.
 *      idle returns 0 to continue execution; nonzero to exit -- returning "result" from the process
 *      identity provides a string to identify this servant in log messages.
 *
