In an article entitled "Implementation Benefits of C++ Language Mechanisms" by David Jordan (Communications of the ACM, Vol. 33, No. 9, September, 1990, pp. 61-64), the auther states that "... no generally available C++ environment yet supports the run-time creation and integration of new types into running processes, though this is possible and has been done. ..." Could anybody provide me some examples (code fragments would be great) or list of books and/or articles on this issue? (The article by David Jordan does not give any references) Any information will be greatly appreciated.
