34<P> Provides method implementations with 
35 access to the identity of the object on which the 
36 method was invoked. The <code>Current</code> package
37 supports servants that implement multiple objects, 
38 but can be used within the context of POA-dispatched 
39 method invocations on any servant. To provide location 
40 transparency, ORBs are required to support use of 
41 <code>Current</code> in the context of both locally and remotely 
42 invoked operations. An instance of <code>Current</code> can be 
43 obtained by the application by issuing the 
44 <code>CORBA::ORB::resolve_initial_references("POACurrent")</code> 
45 operation. Thereafter, it can be used within the 
46 context of a method dispatched by the POA to obtain 
47 the <code>POA</code> and <code>ObjectId</code> that identify the object on 
48 which that operation was invoked.
