Objects
</H1>
<P>
One of the strategies that SIDL uses to enforce
language interoperability is to define an
object model that it supports across all
language bindings. This enables real
object-oriented programming in non OO languages
such as C and FORTRAN 77. This also means that
the inheritance mechanisms inside real OO languages
may be circumvented.
<P>
Contrary to newer scripting languages such as Python and
Ruby, not everything in SIDL is an object. Only
classes (abstract or not) and interfaces are objects.
Everything else (e.g. arrays, enums, strings, ints)
is something other than an object and therefore outside
the scope of this Section.
