Constructor Detail

IltObjectInfo

public IltObjectInfo(Class clazz,
                     String description)

Creates the descriptor of an IltObject subclass. By convention, this descriptor is stored in a static class variable called metainfo.

Method Detail

AllObjectInfos

public static Enumeration AllObjectInfos()
