Display Complete Class Tree

Additional Information

This function displays the complete inheritance tree of classes in a Namespace with indenting to show the inheritance. Individual classes can be displayed from the entries.

This function takes a long time to complete (est. 50 seconds + with 735 classes) and does not start to display until complete. This is a function of the way the information is acquired and in a future version, the algorithm modified to present levels of information as they are received rather than do the complete acquisition and structuring before creating the HTML outptu. It uses the enumerate classnames to get a complete set of names and then uses individual getclass operations to get the classes and extract the superclass. Whereas the Class Inheritance function gets everything in one single enumerate classes operation and requires that the timeout be set to the time required to complete the single call, this display uses enumerate names to get the complete namelist of classes and then acquires the class information one-by-one and therefore can operate with the normal timeout.
