  2. Object copying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_copying

    To effect the creation of a new object which is a shallow duplicate of y, the feature twin is used. In this case, one new object is created with its fields identical to those of the source. The feature twin relies on the feature copy, which can be redefined in descendants of ANY, if needed. The result of twin is of the anchored type like Current.

  3. 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.

  4. Interning (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interning_(computer_science)

    In computer science, interning is re-using objects of equal value on-demand instead of creating new objects. This creational pattern [1] is frequently used for numbers and strings in different programming languages. In many object-oriented languages such as Python, even primitive types such as integer numbers are objects. To avoid the overhead ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. 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.

  7. 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 ...

  8. Method overriding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_overriding

    The method Print in class Box, by invoking the parent version of method Print, is also able to output the private variables length and width of the base class. Otherwise, these variables are inaccessible to Box. The following statements will instantiate objects of type Rectangle and Box, and call their respective Print methods:

  9. Inheritance (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

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

    Inheritance allows programmers to create classes that are built upon existing classes, [1] to specify a new implementation while maintaining the same behaviors (realizing an interface), to reuse code and to independently extend original software via public classes and interfaces.
