class ADriverTable from BinMDF inherits TShared from MMgt

        ---Purpose: A driver table is an object building links between
        --          object types and object drivers. In the
        --          translation process, a driver table is asked to
        --          give a translation driver for each current object
        --          to be translated.

uses
    Type               from Standard,
    ADriver            from BinMDF,    
    TypeADriverMap     from BinMDF,
    IndexedMapOfTransient from TColStd,
    SequenceOfAsciiString from TColStd,
    TypeIdMap from BinMDF

is
    Create returns mutable ADriverTable from BinMDF;
        ---Purpose: Constructor

    AddDriver(me : mutable; theDriver : ADriver from BinMDF);
        ---Purpose: Adds a translation driver <theDriver>.

    AssignId(me : mutable; theType	: Type from Standard;
			   theId	: Integer from Standard)
    	is private;
	---C++: inline
        ---Purpose: Assigns the ID to the driver of the Type

    AssignIds(me : mutable; theTypes	: IndexedMapOfTransient from TColStd);
        ---Purpose: Assigns the IDs to the drivers of the given Types.
        --          It uses indices in the map as IDs.
        --          Useful in storage procedure.

    AssignIds(me : mutable; theTypeNames : SequenceOfAsciiString from TColStd);
        ---Purpose: Assigns the IDs to the drivers of the given Type Names;
        --          It uses indices in the sequence as IDs.
        --          Useful in retrieval procedure.

    GetDriver(me; theType     : Type from Standard;
                  theDriver   : in out ADriver from BinMDF)
        returns Integer from Standard;
	---C++: inline
        ---Purpose: Gets a driver <theDriver> according to <theType>.
        --          Returns Type ID if the driver was assigned an ID; 0 otherwise.

    GetDriver(me; theTypeId   : Integer from Standard)
    	returns ADriver from BinMDF;
	---C++: inline
        ---Purpose: Returns a driver according to <theTypeId>.
        --          Returns null handle if a driver is not found
