 <title>Root Class</title>
 <link>http://www.eiffelroom.com/blog/schoelle/what_do_applications_do_after_make#comment-372</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I don&#039;t think I&#039;ve ever seen a class which was used as the root of an &lt;em&gt;application&lt;/em&gt; project and as a non-root in another project.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Note my qualification: an &lt;em&gt;application&lt;/em&gt; root. I&#039;ve seen at least one case where the root class of a DLL was used as a non-root class in an application.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In my experience, application root classes are always purpose-built as such. Does anyone ever reuse them in the manner proposed by OOSC2?&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Invariant</title>
 <link>http://www.eiffelroom.com/blog/schoelle/what_do_applications_do_after_make#comment-371</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;One meaning of the invariant is that its assertions hold when the root class is not a root class, but is being called by another class.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Anyway, your idea is interesting - why not mock up a definition so we can see its merits and demrits more clearly? Colin Adams&lt;/p&gt;
