# The general idea is that compiling is creating an object graph. Functionally
# one tends to think of methods, and that is complicated enough, sure.
# but for an object system the graph includes classes and all instance variables
#
# And so we have a chicken and egg problem. At the end of the function we want to have a
# working Space object
# But that has instance variables (List and Dictionary) and off course a class.
# Or more precisely in salama, a Layout, that points to a class.
# So we need a Layout, but that has Layout and Class too. hmmm
#
# The way out is to build empty shell objects and stuff the neccessary data into them
# (not use the normal initialize way)
