Title:

Latent Methods

Location:

Owheo 106 - 1:00 pm, Friday 29 May

Abstract:

Single-inheritance languages like Smalltalk are easy to implement and understand. Multiple-inheritance languages like Common Lisp, C++, and Eiffel are harder to implement and understand. But without multiple inheritance, code duplication may be required.

It turns out that there is a common pattern of code duplication which can be handled by a novel approach that distinguishes between where a method is defined and where it is available.
