deferred class Transient from Standard 

    ---Purpose: Abstract class which forms the root of the entire 
    --          Transient class hierarchy.
    ---Warning: This CDL file is actually a stub, even if it attempts to be correct. 
    --          See actual header in Standard_Transient_proto.hxx

        Initialize;
    	    ---Purpose: Empty constructor
	    ---Warning: Copy constructor and assignment operators cannot be 
	    --          declared cleanly in CDL, so we use "C++ alias" for that
    	    ---C++: alias "Standard_Transient(const Standard_Transient&) : count(0) {}"
    	    ---C++: alias "Standard_Transient& operator= (const Standard_Transient&) { return *this; }"

	HashCode (me; Upper : Integer ) returns Integer is virtual;
	    ---Purpose: Returns a hashed value denoting <me>. This value is in
	    --         the range 1..<Upper>.
	    ---C++:  function call

        Delete(me) is  virtual;
            ---Purpose: Memory deallocator for transient classes

	IsInstance (me; TheType : Type) returns Boolean is static;
            ---Purpose: Returns a true value if this is an instance of Type.
            ---Level: Advanced
            
	IsInstance (me; TheTypeName : CString) returns Boolean is static;
            ---Purpose: Returns a true value if this is an instance of TypeName.
            ---Level: Advanced
            
	IsKind (me; TheType : Type) returns Boolean is static;
	    ---Purpose: Returns true if this is an instance of Type or an
	    --          instance of any class that inherits from Type.
	    --          Note that multiple inheritance is not supported by OCCT RTTI mechanism.
