Component is generic, and also recalls COM etc. How about:
Part Facet Role Type Fragment Trait What exactly *is* a metaobject? It's a constituent Vobject that's part of a real Vobject, and which implements a facet or part of that Vobject, probably corresponding to a type. It implements part of the Vobject's interface. It provides an interface to the programmer (e.g. in C++ or whatever) for that facet or part or type. It handles a set or group of messages within that Vobject. I kind of like Part. Could even be inside Vobject's namespace I guess (Vobject::Part). I don't know how much this might have changed in s5 but generally a programmer only needs to know about MetaObjects when he is implementing one, if you're just "using" VOS you deal either with objects as generic Vobjects or with their type interface classes (e.g. Property, Object3D, etc.) Reed _______________________________________________ vos-d mailing list vos-d@interreality.org http://www.interreality.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vos-d
