  2. Zope Object Database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zope_Object_Database

    ZODB stores Python objects using an extended version of Python's built-in object persistence (pickle). A ZODB database has a single root object (normally a dictionary), which is the only object directly made accessible by the database. All other objects stored in the database are reached through the root object. Objects referenced by an object ...

  3. Factory (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factory_(object-oriented...

    In object-oriented programming, a factory is an object for creating other objects; formally, it is a function or method that returns objects of a varying prototype or class [1] from some method call, which is assumed to be new. [a] More broadly, a subroutine that returns a new object may be referred to as a factory, as in factory method or ...

  4. Object copying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_copying

    These features have the potential to create many new objects, because they duplicate all the objects in an entire object structure. Because new duplicate objects are created instead of simply copying references to existing objects, deep operations will become a source of performance issues more readily than shallow operations.

  5. Constructor (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructor_(object...

    In class-based, object-oriented programming, a constructor (abbreviation: ctor) is a special type of function called to create an object. It prepares the new object for use, often accepting arguments that the constructor uses to set required member variables.

  6. Dynamic programming language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming_language

    This can mean generating new objects from a runtime definition or based on mixins of existing types or objects. This can also refer to changing the inheritance or type tree, and thus altering the way that existing types behave (especially with respect to the invocation of methods ).

  7. Virtual method table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_method_table

    An object's virtual method table will contain the addresses of the object's dynamically bound methods. Method calls are performed by fetching the method's address from the object's virtual method table. The virtual method table is the same for all objects belonging to the same class, and is therefore typically shared between them.

  8. Object database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_database

    An object database or object-oriented database is a database management system in which information is represented in the form of objects as used in object-oriented programming. Object databases are different from relational databases which are table-oriented. A third type, object–relational databases, is a hybrid of both approaches. Object ...

  9. Prototype pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prototype_pattern

    It is used when the types of objects to create is determined by a prototypical instance, which is cloned to produce new objects. This pattern is used to avoid subclasses of an object creator in the client application, like the factory method pattern does, and to avoid the inherent cost of creating a new object in the standard way (e.g., using ...
