* Abstract-ness is a meta-property of a class that is used to indicate
|
|
* that the class is intended to be used as a base class for others, and
|
|
* should not (or cannot) be instantiated.
|
|
* We have no such language concept in DM, and so we provide a datum member
|
|
* that can be used to hint at abstractness for circumstances where we would
|
|
* like that to be the case, such as base behavior providers.
