Objects
[Object: Dynamic Object Class Framework]

Detailed Description

QOF Objects provide the means for associating a storage backend to a set of QOF Entities. While an entity can be though of as an identified instance of some thing, the QOF Object provides for a way to associate instances with a storage backend. Storage might be file or SQL storage.

QOF Objects are also used by the query system ....

To work with your own QOF Objects, you can use the QOF Generator to create sample objects and a mini-application with the SQL-type query interface. http://qof-gen.sourceforge.net/

XXX todo, we should split out the storage aspects of this thing from the 'foreach' that query depends on. These are kinda unrelated concepts.
