				Summary: 
			
			
				Provides a C++ interface to smalltalk method description objects. 
			
			   
			
				Public Methods: 
			
			
				
					  
					
					static ObjectPtr  
					
						create 
					
					(); 
					

					  I am create. I act as a "factory method" for creating new
 association objects.
 
					

					

					   
					

					static ObjectPtr  
					
						create 
					
					(ObjectPtr sel, ObjectPtr src); 
					

					  I am also create. I act as a "factory method" for creating
 new method description objects with their values.
 
					

					

					   
					

					static DescPtr  
					
						convert 
					
					(ObjectPtr obj); 
					

					  I convert obj to a valid DescPtr or gNil if obj wasn't an
 association.
 
					

					

					   
					

					 
					
						DescPtr 
					
					(const ObjectPtr & pointee); 
					

					  This is the constructor. It has a default value of gNil, so
 it can be used as the generic constructor as well. This
 constructor creates a Object pointer that points to the
 address passed in through .
 
					

					

					   
					

					SymbolPtr &  
					
						selector 
					
					(); 
					

					  returns the object that is the methods selector
 
					

					

					   
					

					ObjectPtr &  
					
						source 
					
					(); 
					

					  returns the object that contains the methods source code
 test driver for method descriptions
