13 
14 This class defines an abstract interface that must be implemented
15 by all classes that contain dictionary information.
16 
17 The dictionary is defined by the following classes:
18 ~~~ {.cpp}
19 TDataType (typedef definitions)
20 TGlobal (global variables)
21 TGlobalFunc (global functions)
22 TClass (classes)
23  TBaseClass (base classes)
24  TDataMember (class datamembers)
25  TMethod (class methods)
26  TMethodArg (method arguments)
27 ~~~
28 All the above classes implement the TDictionary abstract interface.
29 Note: the indentation shows aggregation not inheritance.
30 ~~~ {.cpp}
31 TMethodCall (method call environment)
32 ~~~
