        <h3 class="Synopsis">void <a class="Symbol" name="destroy">destroy</a>()</h3>
        <p>
Destroy the communicator. This operation calls <a class="Symbol" href="#shutdown">shutdown</a>
implicitly.  Calling <a class="Symbol" href="#destroy">destroy</a> cleans up memory, and shuts down
this communicator's client functionality and destroys all object
adapters. Subsequent calls to <a class="Symbol" href="#destroy">destroy</a> are ignored.</p>

        <h3 class="Synopsis">void <a class="Symbol" name="shutdown">shutdown</a>()</h3>
        <p>
Shuts down this communicator's server functionality, which
includes the deactivation of all object adapters. (Attempts to use
a deactivated object adapter raise <a class="Symbol" href="ObjectAdapterDeactivatedException.html">ObjectAdapterDeactivatedException</a>.)
Subsequent calls to <a class="Symbol" href="#shutdown">shutdown</a> are ignored.</p>

<p class="Note"> After <a class="Symbol" href="#shutdown">shutdown</a> returns, no new requests are
processed. However, requests that have been started before
<a class="Symbol" href="#shutdown">shutdown</a> was called might still be active. You can use
<a class="Symbol" href="#waitForShutdown">waitForShutdown</a> to wait for the completion of all
requests.</p>

        <h3 class="Synopsis">void <a class="Symbol" name="waitForShutdown">waitForShutdown</a>()</h3>
        <p>
Wait until the application has called <a class="Symbol" href="#shutdown">shutdown</a> (or <a class="Symbol" href="#destroy">destroy</a>).
On the server side, this operation blocks the calling thread
until all currently-executing operations have completed.
On the client side, the operation simply block until another
thread has called <a class="Symbol" href="#shutdown">shutdown</a> or <a class="Symbol" href="#destroy">destroy</a>.

<p>A typical use of this operation is to call it
from the main thread, which then waits until some other thread
calls <a class="Symbol" href="#shutdown">shutdown</a>. After shut-down is complete, the main thread
returns and can do some cleanup work before it finally calls
<a class="Symbol" href="#destroy">destroy</a> to shut down the client functionality, and then
exits the application.</p>

        <p>
Convert a stringified proxy into a proxy. For example,
<tt>MyCategory/MyObject:tcp -h some_host -p
10000</tt> creates a proxy that refers to the Ice object
having an identity with a name "MyObject" and a category
"MyCategory", with the server running on host "some_host", port
10000. If the stringified proxy does not parse correctly, the
operation throws one of <a class="Symbol" href="ProxyParseException.html">ProxyParseException</a>,
<a class="Symbol" href="EndpointParseException.html">EndpointParseException</a>, or <a class="Symbol" href="IdentityParseException.html">IdentityParseException</a>.
An appendix in the Ice manual provides a detailed description

Create a new object adapter. The endpoints for the object
adapter are taken from the property <tt><em>name</em>.Endpoints</tt>.</p>

<p>It is legal to create an object adapter with the empty string as
its name. Such an object adapter is accessible via bidirectional
connections or by collocated invocations that originate from the

        <p>
Add a servant factory to this communicator. Installing a
factory with an id for which a factory is already registered
throws <a class="Symbol" href="AlreadyRegisteredException.html">AlreadyRegisteredException</a>.</p>

<p>When unmarshaling an Ice object, the Ice run-time reads the
most-derived type id off the wire and attempts to create an
instance of the type using a factory. If no instance is created,
either because no factory was found, or because all factories
returned nil, the object is sliced to the next most-derived type
and the process repeats. If no factory is found that can create an
instance, the Ice run-time throws <a class="Symbol" href="NoObjectFactoryException.html">NoObjectFactoryException</a>.</p>

<p>The following order is used to locate a factory for a type:</p>

<ol>

<li>The Ice run-time looks for a factory registered
specifically for the type.</li>

<li>If no instance has been created, the Ice run-time looks
for the default factory, which is registered with an empty type id.
</li>

<li>If no instance has been created by any of the preceding
steps, the Ice run-time looks for a factory that may have been
statically generated by the language mapping for non-abstract classes.
</li>

</ol>

by calling the operation <tt>ice_locator</tt> on the proxy, or for an
object adapter by calling the operation <tt>setLocator</tt> on the
object adapter.</p>
