\subsection{Detailed Description}
This class manages symbol tables for the scripting engine. Symbol table management for scripting engine.

A symbol is a variable with a reserved memory space. Some derived systems, like Bayonne IVR, may make use of a channel specific and global symbol tables.

A virtual method used when \char`\"{}committing\char`\"{} symbol changes.

Normally this is a non-operation, but when system specific dialects are created, special symbols that must be converted from strings into other kinds of internal data types, or that might perform operations can be represented with the commit.\begin{Desc}

Clear a symbol definition.

This does not remove the entry if it already exists. It mearly clears the initial flag so it still can appear undefined.\begin{Desc}

Fetch a symbol entry.

Normally this is presumed to be from the native symbol table. However, the use of a virtual allows one to derive special \char`\"{}system\char`\"{} symbols as needed for Bayonne dialects, as well as specify special attributes and properties for system symbols. For example, in the Bayonne IVR, symbols might be used to retrieve the current DTMF digit buffer and count, but these are stored as and manipulated in a channel structure rather than in \char`\"{}symbol space\char`\"{}.
