=== org.omg.CORBA ===
{{Main|CORBA}}

The <code>[https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/org/omg/CORBA/package-summary.html org.omg.CORBA]</code> package provided support for the remote communication between applications using the [[General Inter-ORB Protocol]] and supports other features of the [[CORBA|common object request broker architecture]]. Same as [[Java remote method invocation|RMI]] and [[RMI-IIOP]], this package is for calling remote methods of objects on other virtual machines (usually via network).

This package contained the largest number of <code>Exception</code> classes (45 in all) in JDK 6. From all communication possibilities CORBA is portable between various languages; however, with this comes more complexity.

These packages were deprecated in Java 9 and removed from Java 11.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/320 |title=JEP 320: Remove the Java EE and CORBA Modules |publisher=Openjdk.java.net |date=2019-05-23 |accessdate=2022-03-20}}</ref>

=== org.omg.PortableInterceptor ===
The <code>[https://docs.oracle.com/javase/10/docs/api/org/omg/PortableInterceptor/package-summary.html org.omg.PortableInterceptor]</code> package contained the largest number of interfaces (39 in all) in JDK 6. It provides a mechanism to register ORB hooks through which ORB services intercept the normal flow of execution of the ORB.
