module Parfait # An Object is really a hash like structure. It is dynamic and # you want to store values by name (instance variable names). # # One could (like mri), store the names in each object, but that is wasteful in both time and space. # Instead we store only the values, and access them by index. # The Type allows the mapping of names to index. # The Type of an object describes the memory layout of the object. In a c analogy, it is the # information defined in a struct. # The Type is a list of the names of instance variables, and their value types (int etc). # # Every object has a Type to describe it, so it's *first* instance variable is **always** # "type". This means the name "type" is the first name in the list # for every Type instance. # But, as we want every Object to have a class, the Type carries that class. # So the type of type has an entry "object_class" # But Objects must also be able to carry methods themselves (ruby calls singleton_methods) # and those too are stored in the Type (both type and class include behaviour) # The object is an List of values of length n # The Type is a list of n names and n types that describe the values stored in an actual object. # Together they turn the object into a hash like structure # For types to be a useful concept, they have to be unique and immutable. Any "change", like adding # a name/type pair, will result in a new instance. # The Type class carries a hash of types of the systems, which is used to ensure that # there is only one instance of every type.
