      public final class INV_OBJREF
      extends SystemException

  This exception indicates that an object reference is internally malformed. For example, the repository ID may have incorrect syntax or the addressing information may be invalid. This exception is raised by ORB::string_to_object if the passed string does not decode correctly. An ORB may choose to detect calls via nil references (but is not obliged to do detect them). `INV_OBJREF` is used to indicate this.

  It contains a minor code, which gives more detailed information about what caused the exception, and a completion status. It may also contain a string describing the exception.

  See the section Minor Code Meanings to see the minor codes for this exception.

    JDK1.2
