toString

public String toString(NameComponent[] a_name)
            throws InvalidName
Converts the name into its string representation, as defined in the specification CORBA naming service. A string representation for the name consists of the name components, separated by a slash '/' character (for example, 'a/b/c'). If the NameComponent.kind field is not empty, it is given after period ('.'), for example 'a.b/c.d/.' . The period alone represents node where part where both NameComponent.kind and NameComponent.id are empty strings. If slash or dot are part of the name, they are escaped by backslash ('\'). If the backslash itself is part of the name, it is doubled.
Parameters:
a_name - a name to convert.
Returns:
a string representation.
