It is a little unclear from the functional requirements as to the intent = of the MetaClass ontology. Is it a static compilation time class DAG or is it a dynamic type = creation system that allows me to prototype new types and semantics? The dynamic approach could = allow for the=20 creation of new types and allow coercion of parent types into the newly = created type. This coupled with some sort of dynamic dispatch mechanism could even = allow for method extension. Just a thought Tom |
