Adaptation of the Object-Oriented Language/Software in Adapter

Abstract

Recently, instead of building compilers from scratch, "open language" further allow programmers to customize their own new interface constructs to support special requirements and object-oriented ruquirements at the same time. This paper presents our language adapter++, which is implemented based on the concept of open implementation that the object model can be extended to address different requirements in various computing environments. Adapter++ is distinct from other open languages by that the implementation of extended object model is not directly reified into the syntax or semantics of interface construct to become a new integrated construct but into a separated interface. Programmers can then use the two interfaces to define an object as if suing integrated constructs and thus effectively avoid the inheritance exclusion and inheritance anomaly.
