Basic Object System
In
computer programming, the
Basic Object System (BOS) is a
C-callable
library that implements the notion of
object and which uses
tcl as its
interpreter for interpreted
methodss (you can have "compiled" methods in C, and mix compiled and interpreted methods in the same object, plus lots more). You can
subclass and mix in existing objects using BOS to extend, among other things, the set of
tk widgets. BOS is a class-free object system, also called a prototype-based object system; it is modelled loosely on the
Self system from
Stanford University.
