### Kernel Only class ### Kernel Only class
* Annotate the class with `@kernel`. * Annotate the class with `@kernel`/`@portable`.
* Functions are all kernel only, including constructor. * The instance can be created from within kernel functions, or the host if it is
portable. It can be passed into kernels.
Questions: * All methods, including the constructor, are treated as kernel/portable
* Should we also do `@portable`? functions that would be compiled by the compiler, no RPC function is allowed.
* Support inheritance and polymorphism? * If the instance is passed into the kernel, the host is not allowed to access
the instance data. Access would raise exception.
