If you have ever used Zope and know how Zope products are created you might
have an idea about what I am using XPC in a CMF for.
below is a more detailed description.
Products are objects
They are represented in URLS as top level directories "parent directories"
that are related to a table in the current domain's database (or shared DB).
An object or a product is created when a URI is requested.
The object is formed based on the URI.
Once formed the proper settings are presented to the requestor based on
pre-defined product / object settings and the related visitors status in
relation to the current domain.
add a class -> create the class
create objects from the class (properties)
create a "object" for "CD Player" class
or properties for the "CD Player" class or "product"
create multiple "CD Player" objects from one "CD Player" class
methods are attributes for a specific object of the specific class.
An object is a prototype of the "CD Player" class
Inheritance of the object are global properties that can be used throughout
or as a "stencil."
