The Common Lisp Object System provides a number of predefined metaclasses. These include the
|
|
classes <tt>standard-class</tt>, <tt>built-in-class</tt>, and
|
|
<tt>structure-class</tt>:
|
|
<P>
|
|
<UL><LI>
|
|
The class <tt>standard-class</tt> is the default class of classes defined
|
|
by <tt>defclass</tt>.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<LI> The class <tt>built-in-class</tt> is the class whose
|
|
instances are classes that have special implementations with
|
|
restricted capabilities. Any class that corresponds to a standard
|
|
Common Lisp type
|
|
might be an instance of <tt>built-in-class</tt>.
|
|
The predefined Common Lisp type specifiers that are required to have
|
|
corresponding classes are listed in table <A HREF="node273.html#CLOSPRECEDENCETABLE">28-1</A>.
|
|
It is implementation-dependent whether each of these classes is implemented as a built-in class.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<LI>
|
|
All classes defined by means of <tt>defstruct</tt> are instances of
|
|
<tt>structure-class</tt>.
