Object REXX is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, object-oriented (class-based) programming language.
It is a follow-on and a significant extension of the Rexx programming language (often called "Classic Rexx"). Object REXX retains all the features and syntax of "Classic Rexx" while adding full object-oriented programming (OOP) capabilities. Although Object REXX does not implement all aspects of the "Information Technology – Programming Language REXX" ANSI X3.274-1996[1] standard, it offers many new features of its own.
Following its "Classic Rexx" influence, Object REXX is designed to be easy to learn, use, and maintain. Object REXX is today often referred to as Open Object Rexx (ooRexx).
