Object-Oriented Programming Using SOM and DSOM/Understanding the Basics

We covered the development and use of a SOM object in the last chapter. In this chapter, we will look at the SOM kernel. We will discuss the concepts and the terminologies that make up the SOM run-time environment. We will examine the SOM inheritance model and the options it provides for method resolution. A good understanding of these fundamental concepts will help you when you write your SOM programs.
