  Revision 1.1.6.3  2007/04/14 17:56:52  dgrisby
  Identity downcasting mechanism was broken by VC++ 8's
  over-enthusiastic optimiser.

  Revision 1.1.6.2  2006/09/17 23:21:49  dgrisby
  Properly import identity_count for Windows DLL hell.

  Revision 1.1.6.1  2003/03/23 21:03:44  dgrisby
  Start of omniORB 4.1.x development branch.

  Revision 1.1.4.5  2001/09/19 17:26:46  dpg1
  Full clean-up after orb->destroy().

  Revision 1.1.4.4  2001/09/03 16:52:05  sll
  New signature for locateRequest. Now accept a calldescriptor argument.

  Revision 1.1.4.3  2001/08/15 10:26:09  dpg1
  New object table behaviour, correct POA semantics.

  Revision 1.1.4.2  2001/06/13 20:11:37  sll
  Minor update to make the ORB compiles with MSVC++.

  Revision 1.1.4.1  2001/04/18 17:18:15  sll
  Big checkin with the brand new internal APIs.
  These files were relocated and scoped with the omni namespace.

  Revision 1.2.2.3  2000/11/03 19:08:52  sll
  Use virtual dtor with gcc.

  Revision 1.2.2.2  2000/09/27 17:39:28  sll
  Updated include/omniORB3 to include/omniORB4

  Revision 1.2.2.1  2000/07/17 10:35:40  sll
  Merged from omni3_develop the diff between omni3_0_0_pre3 and omni3_0_0.

  Revision 1.3  2000/07/13 15:26:03  dpg1
  Merge from omni3_develop for 3.0 release.

  Revision 1.1.2.1  1999/09/22 14:26:26  djr
  Major rewrite of orbcore to support POA.
