-This directive may also be used to declare dynamic grammar rule non-terminals. As each Logtalk entity is compiled independently from other entities, this directive must be included in every object or category that contains a definition for the described predicate (even if the predicate declaration is inherited from other entity). If we omit the dynamic declaration then the predicate definition will be compiled to static code. Note that any static object may declare and define dynamic predicates.
