35 /* The Object class is a very minimal root class included with the
|
|
36 runtime. It is used as superclass for the two classes included
|
|
37 with the runtime, Protocol and NXConstantString.
|
|
38
|
|
39 Because Objective-C allows multiple root classes, you can define
|
|
40 your own root class, different from Object.
|
|
41
|
|
42 In particular, a Foundation library (such as GNUstep Base) is
|
|
43 expected to provide its own root class (typically called NSObject),
|
|
44 fully integrated with the library's own high-level features. It is
|
|
45 expected that you should always use and interact with NSObject, and
|
|
46 mostly ignore Object. */
