Do you mean as Java-package? No, IMHO, that's not the best solution.

You can use:
#pragma javaPackage "telcos.net.ua"

But since some ORB's IDL-compiler, at least older versions, do not handle
unknown pragma's correctly a better option is:

#pragma prefix "telcos.net.ua"

For example, all OMG specifications use the "omg.org" prefix, which
results in (NamingContext):

"IDL:omg.org/CosNaming/NamingContextExt:1.0"

The generated files is then created as:

org/omg/CosNaming/

Use the IC 'erl_corba' backend (default) and our ORB Orber.
