eieio: Default Superclass

 
 15 Default Superclass
 *********************
 
 All defined classes, if created with no specified parent class, will
 inherit from a special class stored in ‘eieio-default-superclass’.  This
 superclass is quite simple, but with it, certain default methods or
 attributes can be added to all objects.  In CLOS, this would be named
 ‘STANDARD-CLASS’, and that symbol is an alias to
 ‘eieio-default-superclass’.
 
    Currently, the default superclass is defined as follows:
 
      (defclass eieio-default-superclass nil
        nil
        "Default parent class for classes with no specified parent class.
      Its slots are automatically adopted by classes with no specified
      parents.  This class is not stored in the `parent' slot of a class vector."
        :abstract t)
 
    The default superclass implements several methods providing a default
 behavior for all objects created by EIEIO.
