The remainder of this reference is an alphabetical listing of classes.
The entry for each class begins with an illustration showing the individual
class's inheritance hierarchy, followed by a synopsis that lists the header
files(s) and the Smalltalk typedef (if appropriate) associated with the
class. The synopsis also shows a declaration and definition of a class
object, and any typedefs that are used. Following the synopsis is a brief
description of the class, and a list of member and global functions. These
functions are organized in categories according to their general use -
for example, "constructors," "global operators," and "public member functions."
The categories, although somewhat arbitrary, provide a way of organizing
the many functions.
All function names begin with a lower case letter, with the first letter of subsequent words capitalized. Function names attempt to accurately describe what a function does. For example, RWCString::toLower() changes all uppercase letters in itself to lowercase. Underline characters and abbreviations are not generally used in function names.
Function names, examples, operating system commands, mathematical symbols and code fragments are shown in a courier font, as in <rw/stream.h> . Vertical ellipses are used in code examples to indicate that some part of the code is missing.
Throughout this documentation, there are frequent references to "self."
This should be read as "*this".
When a class inherits from more than one class, or there are multiple
levels of inheritance, all of the inheritance relationships are shown.
For example, the following illustration indicates that A
inherits from class B and from class C, which
inherits from class D.
The notation system used in the inheritance hierarchies is based on
the Object Modeling Technique (OMT) developed by Rumbaugh and others.
Functions that are inherited from a base class without being redefined. The complete documentation for these functions is presented in the defining base class. An example is clearAndDestroy(), for class RWBinaryTree, which is inherited from class RWCollection. When a member function is inherited without being redefined, the member function appears in both places, and this guide refers you to the original definition.
Functions that are redefined in a derived class. These are usually virtual functions. The documentation for these functions usually directs you to the base class, but may also mention peculiarities that are relevant to the derived class. An example is apply(), for class RWBinaryTree.
Classes derived by multiple inheritance show their additional base(s)
in italics to the right of the class name.
