in real OOP objects are specialized through its virtual method
implementations AND its ctor-parameters (which are similar in very very
few rare cases)
for example pseudo code
class Stream
virtual read_bytes()...
class FileStream: Stream
this(filename)
class NetworkStream: Stream
this(tcp_ip,timeout)
Stream[] streams
streams ~= FileStream("c:/temp/test.txt");
streams ~= NetworkStream("123.112.2.1", 1000);
stream[n].read_bytes()
this is a much more common OOP/ctor situation then yours
i think its part of pascal/object delphi to ease the VCL development
but this can be easily reached with an internal CreateInstance routine like
Stream
virtual Stream CreateInstance()
and
FileStream implements CreateInstance() with with return new FileStream
NetworkStream "" with new NetworkStream etc.
so whats the realy big deal/feature of this "class of"-type except for
very trivial OOP case
Actually there are many definitions what real OOP means.
As for Delphi's case, if I am not mistaken it tries to follow the
metaclass concept that Smalltalk has, and Java/.NET have to a certain
extent.
no there aren't many definitions but many many missuse of the concept
you interface is the adaptor, your virtual method code is the special
behavior, your ctors parameters are the intialisers of the special
behavior - everything else is just a pseudo-procedural style - its not
OOP if you need to use casts and ifs on your object-type, thats
procedural programming with class-based fake-namespaces
can you give me a small example of the metaclass concept of smalltalk -
related to my simple stream example?
