%D Boxes can be considered reuable objects. Unfortunaltely once
%D passed to the \DVI\ file, such objects cannot be reused. In
%D \PDF\ however, reusing is possible and sometimes even a
%D necessity. Therefore, \CONTEXT\ supports reusable objects. 
%D 
%D During the \TEX\ processing run, boxes can serve the purpose
%D of objects, and the \DVI\ driver module implements objects
%D using packed boxes. 
%D 
%D The \PDF\ and \PDFTEX\ driver modules implement objects
%D using \PDF\ forms. There is no (real) restriction on the
%D number of objects there. 
%D 
%D The first application of objects in \CONTEXT\ concerned
%D \METAPOST\ graphics and fill||in form fields. The first
%D application can save lots of bytes, while the latter use is
%D more a necessity than byte saving. 
%D 
%D \starttypen
%D \setobject{class}{name}\somebox{}
%D \getobject{class}{name}
%D \stoptypen
%D 
%D Here \type{\somebox} can be whatever box specification suits
%D \TEX. We save the dimensions of an object, although some
%D drivers will do so themselves. This means that when for
%D instance using \PDFTEX\ we could save a hash entry plus some
%D 20+ memory locations per object by delegating this
%D housekeeping to the driver. The current approach permits 
%D us to keep the box characteristic too.

%D Apart from this kind of objects, that have typeset content, 
%D we can have low level driver specific objects. Both types 
%D can have references to internal representations, hidden for 
%D the user. We keep track of such references by means of a 
%D dedicated cross reference mechanism. Normally, objects are 
%D defined before they are used, but forward referencing 
%D sometimes occurs.

%D
%D Starting with reuse of graphics, we will implement object 
%D reuse when possible. To enable mechanisms to determine 
%D what method to use, we provide:
%D
%D \starttypen
%D \doifobjectssupportedelse{true action}{false action}
%D \stoptypen
%D
%D As we can see, currently objects depend on the special 
%D driver.

%D There is a conceptual problem here. Objects are not possible
%D in \DVI, unless faked like in \type {spec-dvi}. This means
%D that we must be careful in loading special drivers that do 
%D support objects while we still want to be able to use the 
%D \DVI\ output.
