+.. index:: object manipulation
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+RTEMS provides a collection of services to assist in the
+management and usage of the objects created and utilized
+via other managers.  These services assist in the
+manipulation of RTEMS objects independent of the API used
+to create them.  The object related services provided by
+RTEMS are:
+
+- build_id
+
+- ``rtems.build_name`` - build object name from characters
+
+- ``rtems.object_get_classic_name`` - lookup name from Id
+
+- ``rtems.object_get_name`` - obtain object name as string
+
+- ``rtems.object_set_name`` - set object name
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_get_api`` - obtain API from Id
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_get_class`` - obtain class from Id
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_get_node`` - obtain node from Id
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_get_index`` - obtain index from Id
+
+- ``rtems.build_id`` - build object id from components
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_api_minimum`` - obtain minimum API value
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_api_maximum`` - obtain maximum API value
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_api_minimum_class`` - obtain minimum class value
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_api_maximum_class`` - obtain maximum class value
+
+- ``rtems.object_get_api_name`` - obtain API name
+
+- ``rtems.object_get_api_class_name`` - obtain class name
+
+- ``rtems.object_get_class_information`` - obtain class information
+
+Background
+==========
+
+APIs
+----
+
+RTEMS implements multiple APIs including an Internal API,
+the Classic API, and the POSIX API.  These
+APIs share the common foundation of SuperCore objects and
+thus share object management code. This includes a common
+scheme for object Ids and for managing object names whether
+those names be in the thirty-two bit form used by the Classic
+API or C strings.
+
+The object Id contains a field indicating the API that
+an object instance is associated with.  This field
+holds a numerically small non-zero integer.
+
+Object Classes
+--------------
+
+Each API consists of a collection of managers.  Each manager
+is responsible for instances of a particular object class.
+Classic API Tasks and POSIX Mutexes example classes.
+
+The object Id contains a field indicating the class that
+an object instance is associated with.  This field
+holds a numerically small non-zero integer.  In all APIs,
+a class value of one is reserved for tasks or threads.
+
+Object Names
+------------
+
+Every RTEMS object which has an Id may also have a
+name associated with it.  Depending on the API, names
+may be either thirty-two bit integers as in the Classic
+API or strings as in the POSIX API.
+
+Some objects have Ids but do not have a defined way to associate
+a name with them.  For example, POSIX threads have
+Ids but per POSIX do not have names. In RTEMS, objects
+not defined to have thirty-two bit names may have string
+names assigned to them via the ``rtems.object_set_name``
+service.  The original impetus in providing this service
+was so the normally anonymous POSIX threads could have
+a user defined name in CPU Usage Reports.
+
+Operations
+==========
+
+Decomposing and Recomposing an Object Id
+----------------------------------------
+
+Services are provided to decompose an object Id into its
+subordinate components. The following services are used
+to do this:
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_get_api``
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_get_class``
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_get_node``
+
+- ``rtems.object_id_get_index``
+
+The following C language example illustrates the
+decomposition of an Id and printing the values.
+.. code:: c
+
+    void printObjectId(rtems_id id)
+    {
+    printf(
+    "API=%d Class=%d Node=%d Index=%d\\n",
+    rtems_object_id_get_api(id),
+    rtems_object_id_get_class(id),
+    rtems_object_id_get_node(id),
+    rtems_object_id_get_index(id)
+    );
+    }
+
+This prints the components of the Ids as integers.
+
+It is also possible to construct an arbitrary Id using
+the ``rtems.build_id`` service.  The following
+C language example illustrates how to construct the
+"next Id."
+.. code:: c
+
+    rtems_id nextObjectId(rtems_id id)
+    {
+    return rtems_build_id(
+    rtems_object_id_get_api(id),
+    rtems_object_id_get_class(id),
+    rtems_object_id_get_node(id),
+    rtems_object_id_get_index(id) + 1
+    );
+    }
+
+Note that this Id may not be valid in this
+system or associated with an allocated object.
+
+Printing an Object Id
+---------------------
+
+RTEMS also provides services to associate the API and Class
+portions of an Object Id with strings.  This allows the
+application developer to provide more information about
+an object in diagnostic messages.
+
+In the following C language example, an Id is decomposed into
+its constituent parts and "pretty-printed."
+.. code:: c
+
+    void prettyPrintObjectId(rtems_id id)
+    {
+    int tmpAPI, tmpClass;
+    tmpAPI   = rtems_object_id_get_api(id),
+    tmpClass = rtems_object_id_get_class(id),
+    printf(
+    "API=%s Class=%s Node=%d Index=%d\\n",
+    rtems_object_get_api_name(tmpAPI),
+    rtems_object_get_api_class_name(tmpAPI, tmpClass),
+    rtems_object_id_get_node(id),
+    rtems_object_id_get_index(id)
+    );
+    }
