class	NATIntercessiveMirror NATIntercessiveMirror extends the default NATIntrospectiveMirror to also allow programmers to supply their own code for the meta-operations defined on an object.
class	NATIntrospectiveMirror NATIntrospectiveMirror is a default mirror to represent an ambienttalk object which is capable of offering the java meta-interface of any language value at the ambienttalk level.
class	NativeAnonymousMethod A NativeAnonymousMethod represents the meta_apply method of an anonymous NativeClosure subclass.
class	NativeClosure A NativeClosure is a wrapper class for a piece of Java code.
class	NativeField Native Fields are represented in our reflective implementation as a pair of accessor and mutator methods in the class of the native AmbientTalk object.
class	NativeMethod A NativeMethod is a wrapper around a Java method allowing it to be selected from native base-level objects and passed around as an ordinary object.
class	NATMirage A NATMirage is an object that forwards all meta-operations invoked upon it (at the java-level) to its designated mirror object.
class	OBJMirrorRoot OBJMirrorRoot is a singleton which is shared by as a parent by all NATIntercessiveMirrors, It encodes the default behaviour to deal with invocation, selection and field assignment along the dynamic parent chain.
class	PrimitiveMethod A primitive method is the equivalent of a NativeClosure but for methods rather than closures.

class	NATObject Native implementation of a default ambienttalk object.
private class	NATObjectClosureTest.AGScopeTest This class is a special statement class used to test the correct scoping of method invocation from the java level, rather than by executing ambienttalk code directly.
