deferred class Transient from Standard 

    ---Purpose: Abstract class which forms the root of the entire 
    --          Transient class hierarchy.
    ---Warning: This CDL file is actually a stub, even if it attempts to be correct. 
    --          See actual header in Standard_Transient_proto.hxx
