Like the term ''plain old Java object (POJO)'' in the Java world, the term '''''Plain Old C/C++ object''''' or its acronym '''''POCO''''' means a C/C++ artifact that is ''neither defined by nor coupled to'' the underlying C/C++ component framework that manipulates it. Examples of such an artifact include, for instance, instances of a C++ classes, K&R structs, unions, or even functions (as function pointers). This is contrast to component model in classic C/C++ component frameworks, such as OMG-CCM, JTRS-SCA core framework (CF), OpenSOA's SCA for C++. These classic component frameworks either dedicate a proprietary component programming model (a super class), or mandate component implementations to be tightly coupled to the underlying framework (calling its runtime).
