  // = DESCRIPTION
  //     Manages a Naming Service .  That represents a persistent
  //     string to string mapping for different scopes. The scope of a
  //     ACE_Naming_Context may be either local for the calling
  //     process (Note : A process is hereby not identified by it's
  //     pid, but by it's argv[0]. So different processes (in UNIX
  //     syntax) may access the same NameBindings), global for all
  //     processes running on one host or global for all processes on
  //     the net (that know the address of the net name server
  //     socket). Strings may be plain character strings or Wide
  //     character strings. A Name Binding consists of a name string
  //     (that's the key), a value string and an optional type string
  //     (no wide chars).
