Metaprogramming Facilities in Oberon for Windows and Power Macintosh
Sprache des Titels:
Englisch
Original Kurzfassung:
This report describes metaprogramming facilities in the Oberon V4 system for Power Macintosh and Windows. Metaprogramming means that a module can access the structure of other modules (i.e., procedures, types, run-time data) at run time.
We show how metaprogramming can be used in a number of interesting applications such as a post mortem debugger that allows the user to zoom into records, arrays and pointers, a heap inspector, a database interface, and a general output module.
