2.1. Defining Objects and Classes

When creating objects or classes, one should use the method create -explicitly. In XOTcl, a default unknown handler was provided for +explicitly. In XOTcl, a default unknown method handler was provided for classes, which create for every unknown method invocation an object/class with the name of the invoked method. This technique was convenient, but as well dangerous, since typos in method names lead -easily to unexpected behavior. This default unknown handler is not +easily to unexpected behavior. This default unknown method handler is not provided in NX (but can certainly be provided as a one-liner in NX by the application).
