TYPE T <: Public;
  Public = OBJECT
  METHODS
    init(c: M3Context.T; main: M3AST_AS.Compilation_Unit;
         md: MDCallback := NIL): T;
    next(VAR (*out*) cu: M3AST_AS.Compilation_Unit): BOOLEAN;

  END;
The init method computes the initialisation order of the modules in c, given that the tmp_dependson_s attribute has already been computed, and thatmain has been designated the main program module. If md # NIL, then md.callback will be called for any modules that mutually depend on each other.

The next method will return the modules in the initialisation order computed by init.

The reset method resets the iterator to the beginning.

END M3LInitOrder.
