Object Field Name Conflicts [message #87338]

Folks,

In building an object program recently I have a core object that
inherits IDL_CONTAINER, IDLitCOMPONENT, and IDL_OBJECT objects. I don't
know the field or tag names of *any* of these objects, which makes
choosing names for my own object a bit of an adventure.

I've already run into conflict with _parent, _name, and _uvalue. Of
course, this is not surprising. Great minds think alike and all that.
But, I wonder if there is a listing of the tag names these objects use?

It would be wonderful if the name space of objects could be protected,
but failing that, it would be great if we knew what names we can't use.

Cheers,

David
