1. A method of using a computer for rule inferencing from an object-oriented data domain of user-defined objects, comprising the steps of:

  • instantiating a rule, from a program having an object-oriented data domain, as an inference class object;

    inheriting at least one user-defined object, to be used by said rule for inferencing, from a working memory element class;

    instantiating said user-defined class object from which said rule will inference; and

    inferencing with said rule, wherein a matching phase of said inferencing directly accesses said user-defined class object.
