// 
//   This is the class that implements DSOM proxy objects in clients.
// 
//   This class is a subclass of SOMDObject.  It inherits the basic behavior
//   (methods) of a CORBA object reference from that parent class.
//   Thus, it "is a" SOMDObject.
// 
//   This class overrides the usual somDispatch methods with versions
//   that build a DSOM Request for the invocation and dispatch it, remotely.
//   It is intended that the implementation of this "generic" proxy class
//   will be used to derive specific proxy classes via multiple inheritance.
//   The new dispatch method is inherited from this client proxy class, while
//   the desired interface--and language bindings--are inherited from the 
//   target class (but no implementation).
// 
//   E.g.,
//          SOMDClientProxy      Animal
//                    \           /
//                     \         / (interface only)
//                      \       /
//                   Animal__Proxy
//
//   Note that SOMDClientProxy is an instance of SOMDMetaProxy.
