%
% Based on pgfmoduleoo.code.tex v1.8 by Till Tantau.  This version adds inheritance. 



% Support of object-oriented programming in TeX, with inheritance.


% The oo support works as follows:
%
% The main supported concepts are classes, objects, methods,
% attributes and signal/slots. A class defines a set of methods, which are,
% in the end, just normal TeX macros. Once a class has been created,
% it can be instantiated by calling the \pgfoonew command, resulting
% in a new object. Objects are local to their group. Given an object,
% you can send it a message, resulting in the method code of the
% object's method to be executed. While an object exists, it has a set
% of attributes whose values can change over time. Attributes values
% are not local to TeX groups, rather their life-cycle is the same as
% the object's (which, however, is local to the group in which the
% object was declared).
%
% The implementation is as follows: There is an ID counter that is
% increased each time an object is created. This counter is local to
% the group, which means that when a group ends the counter will
% revert to the previous value, allowing objects to the reused in
% subsequent groups.
%
% A method is just a normal \TeX macro, but to call it you write
% \objecthandle.methodname(parameters). The \objecthandle is a macro
% that is created when you say \pgfoonew. The special object
% \pgfoothis is the current object.
%
% Attributes are stored globally in internal TeX macros whose name is
% composed of the object number and the attribute name.




% Declares a class
%
% #1 = class name
% #2 = methods
%
% Description:
%
% This command declares a class for future use. Inside #2, the macro
% \method can be used to declare a method. The \method macro takes a
% method name, parameters (methods are normal TeX macros, after all)
% and body.

% base classes are put in parenthesis before the new class name, but
% are optional.

%

% wish to get a handle to the object itself, not to the special macro
% \pgfoothis. In this case you can say \obj.get handle(#1).

%
% Description:
%
% This method frees space ocupied by unused objects. Garbage are
% objects that have been destroyed because of the end of the scope in
% which they were created. In this case, however, the memory used by
% this object is not immediately reused because the attributes of the 
% object are actually stored in global variables. When the garbage
% collector is called, it will set all these global variables to
% \relax, thereby ensuring that no memory is needed for them.
