There a record is a simplified object which never has a VMT and has no methods. An object has a VMT only if the attribute [virtual] is given. An object can be instantiated in global or stack memory or on heap if it has a constructor() and destructor(). A class is an object which always is instantiated on heap and which provides implicit dereferencing. Classes can inherit from objects. https://gitlab.com/mseide-msegui/mselang/wikis/home/mselang_objects https://gitlab.com/mseide-msegui/mselang/wikis/home (under construction).
