Inheritance diagram for IChildren:

Detailed Description

Some API clases present a virtual structure similar to a tree. For instance, AParagraph class can be seen as a container for text with different styles. Thus, the following LDP source code:

(para (txt (style bold) "Hello") (txt " world! ")(txt "It is a nice day!"))

will produce the following structure of API classes:

                                    AParagraph
                                        |
                   +--------------------+--------------------+
                   |                    |                    |
               ATextItem (bold)     ATextItem (normal)   ATextItem (normal)
               "Hello"              " world! "           "It is a nice day!"

For objects, such as AParagraph, that organizes its content in a tree, class IChildren provides the methods for child content traversal. IChildren is just an interface class and thus, you will never directly manage IChildren objects but objects derived from this class.
