 This interface reveals those aspects of the TransformProp module that are
   related to proxied objects and to interfacing with an embedded language
   such as Obliq. It should be imported only by modules that implement
   this embedded language. 


INTERFACE TransformPropProxy;

IMPORT Matrix4, Prop, ProxiedObj;

FROM TransformProp IMPORT
  Name, Val, ConstBeh, SyncBeh, AsyncBeh, DepBeh, Request;

 Proxy Maker (PM) procedures for the various proxied object types are
   registered by assigning them to these variables. These variables could be
   put in their own interface. 


VAR
  NamePM     : PROCEDURE (x : Name)     := NIL;
  ValPM      : PROCEDURE (x : Val)      := NIL;
  ConstBehPM : PROCEDURE (x : ConstBeh) := NIL;
  SyncBehPM  : PROCEDURE (x : SyncBeh)  := NIL;
  AsyncBehPM : PROCEDURE (x : AsyncBeh) := NIL;
  DepBehPM   : PROCEDURE (x : DepBeh)   := NIL;
  RequestPM  : PROCEDURE (x : Request)  := NIL;

 The AsyncBeh and DepBeh types are abstract supertypes; concrete
   asynchronous and dependent behaviors are created by overriding the value
   method. We want to be able to do this not only from Modula-3, but also from
   the embedded language (e.g. Obliq). This is achieved by providing special
   proxy types.


   The proxy field of AsyncBeh and DepBeh must contain either NIL or
   an object of type AsyncBehProxy or DepBehProxy.



TYPE
  AsyncBehProxy = ProxiedObj.Proxy OBJECT
  METHODS
    compute (time : LONGREAL) : Matrix4.T RAISES {Prop.BadMethod};
  END;

  DepBehProxy = ProxiedObj.Proxy OBJECT
  METHODS
    compute (time : LONGREAL) : Matrix4.T RAISES {Prop.BadMethod};
  END;

  RequestProxy = ProxiedObj.Proxy OBJECT
  METHODS
    value (READONLY startval : Matrix4.T; reltime : REAL) : Matrix4.T
        RAISES {Prop.BadMethod};
  END;

END TransformPropProxy.
