XMLConfig's definitions may be stacked up into hierarchies of abstract
745+
parents and their children objects. A child object not
746+
only inherits all the properties and constructor arguments from
747+
its parent but it can also easily override any of the inherited
748+
values. This can save a lot of typing when configuring
749+
non-trivial application contexts which would otherwise need to
750+
repeat the same configuration properties over many objects
751+
definitions.

An abstract object is identified by having an
755+
<emphasis>abstract="True"</emphasis> attribute and the child
756+
ones are those which have a <emphasis>parent</emphasis> attribute
757+
set to ID of an object from which the properties or constructor
758+
arguments should be inherited. Child objects must not specify
759+
the <emphasis>class</emphasis> attribute, its value is taken
760+
from their parents.

Here's a hypothetical configuration of a set of services exposed
768+
by a server. Note how you can easily change the CRM environment
769+
you're invoking by merely changing the concrete service's
770+
(get_customer_id or get_customer_profile) parent ID.
