Title |
Towards a language independent object system |
Date |
1991-06 |
Description |
This thesis proposes a solution to the problem of mixed language programming in an object-oriented environment that centers around an object specification that can describe the features of objects in a language independent fashion. Also, a stub generator which reads this specification and creates method interfaces to foreign language that allow an object to invoke a method transparently, regardless of the actual language of the method. An in depth analysis of several major object-oriented programming languages is made to determine the features required in a specification language. Such a language is then defined and a stub generator implemented. |
