Abstract :
The Taligent Object System (TOS) is an object-oriented system hosted on a modern microkernel, Mach. Mach has a procedural application programming interface (API) defined in the C programming language. This paper presents the design goals for a set of C++ classes which present an object view of the Mach microkernel API.
