Traditional OOP: late binding by default for safety. \ Early binding if you ask for it. \ 1. Single inheritance \ 2. Object aggregation (has-a relationship) \ 3. Support objects in the dictionary and as proxies for \ existing structures (by reference): \ *** A ficl object can wrap a C struct *** \ 4. Separate name-spaces for methods - methods are \ only visible in the context of a class / object \ 5. Methods can be overridden, and subclasses can add methods. \ No limit on number of methods. \ General info: \ Classes are objects, too: all classes are instances of METACLASS \ All classes are derived (by convention) from OBJECT. This \ base class provides a default initializer and superclass \ access method \ A ficl object binds instance storage (payload) to a class. \ object ( -- instance class ) \ All objects push their payload address and class address when \ executed. All objects have this footprint: \ cell 0: first payload cell \ A ficl class consists of a parent class pointer, a wordlist \ ID for the methods of the class, and a size for the payload \ of objects created by the class. A class is an object. \ The NEW method creates and initializes an instance of a class. \ Classes have this footprint: \ cell 0: parent class address \ cell 1: wordlist ID \ cell 2: size of instance's payload \ Methods expect an object couple ( instance class ) \ on the stack. \ Overridden methods must maintain the same stack signature as \ their predecessors. Ficl has no way of enforcing this, though. user current-class 0 current-class ! \ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \ ** L A T E B I N D I N G \ Compile the method name, and code to find and \ execute it at run-time... \ parse-method compiles the method name so that it pushes \ the string base address and count at run-time. \ : parse-method \ name run: ( -- c-addr u ) parse-word postpone sliteral ; compile-only : lookup-method ( class c-addr u -- class xt ) 2dup local u local c-addr end-locals 2 pick cell+ @ ( -- class c-addr u wid ) search-wordlist ( -- class 0 | xt 1 | xt -1 ) 0= if c-addr u type ." not found in " body> >name type cr abort endif ; : exec-method ( instance class c-addr u -- ) lookup-method execute ; : find-method-xt \ name ( class -- class xt ) parse-word lookup-method ; \ Method lookup operator takes a class-addr and instance-addr \ and executes the method from the class's wordlist if \ interpreting.

Each IV word contains the offset \ of the IV it represents, and runs code to add that offset \ to the base address of an instance when executed. \ The metaclass SUB method, defined below, leaves the address \ of the new class's offset field and its initial size on the \ stack for these words to update. When a class definition is \ complete, END-CLASS saves the final size in the class's size \ field, and restores the search order and compile wordlist to \ prior state.
