Reference/es_mbc

struct es_mbc is an opaque data structure representing a class. A class forms part of the definition or schema of a database. It defines the set of fields, indices and parent relationships of a set of nodes. It corresponds to the definition of a table in a relational database. It can also be thought of like a C++ class which describes the structure and runtime characteristics of one or more objects (i.e. nodes).
