Summary and suggested reading order:
==============================================================================
Connection interceptor (called an ORBSocketFactory):
Summary:
The server side part of the ORBSocketFactory is told the type to
create as well as a port number.
The client side part of the ORBSocketFactory is called on every client
request. An ORB first asks the factory for type/host/port information
(given an IOR). If the ORB already has a connection of the
type/host/port it will use the existing connection. Otherwise it will
then ask the factory to create a client socket, giving it that
type/host/port. Finally, the createSocket method may throw an
exception to tell the ORB to ask it for type/host/port info again.
The information passed back and forth between the ORB and factory can
act as a cookie for the factory if desired.

Access to a request's socket:
Summary:
The request's socket is available via ClientRequestInfo and
ServerRequestInfo. We enable this by having them implement the
RequestInfoExt interface.

==============================================================================
Extending IORInfo to support the multiple server port API:
Summary:
We support the multiple server port API in PortableInterceptors by
having IORInfo implement the IORInfoExt interface. The description on
how to use the multiple server port APIs is found in
ORBSocketFactory.java.
