Abstract
Information on GDMO managed objects, including class hierarchy and the name binding templates, is compiled into a naming table. This naming table is built from an inheritance table and the name binding template information. The inheritance table indicates the inheritance hierarchy of the managed object classes. The compiler builds the inheritance table as a square matrix with a row and column for each class, and the classes arranged in an ordered list from highest to lowest in hierarchy. The compiler enters a one at each position in the inheritance table to indicate that the managed object class in the row inherits from the managed class in the column. With the inheritance table as a ready reference, the compiler builds the naming table from the name binding templates available as listed in the GDMO source files. The naming table is a square matrix identical to the inheritance table except the entries in the naming table are not ones and zeros. Instead, entries in the naming table are lists of name binding templates that may be used to instantiate a managed object instance in the row class under a managed object instance in the column class.
