Dear OO-experts, I'm looking for information on the implementation of object-oriented languages. I think that in most books this information is lacking, e.g. the principle of inheritance is always explained in great detail but its implementation is usually omitted. I'm mainly interested in the advantages and disadvantages of compiling vs. interpreting (concurrent) OOPLs with respect to the following topics: - speed - usage of memory - time needed to develop the compiler/interpreter - implementation of (pseudo-)concurrency on a single processor However, I'm also interested in other aspects of implementing OOPLs. This question may sound rather vague, but I hope that someone who has experience with implementing OOPLs, will send me some references. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks, Eric -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ___________ / Eric Peeters / ___________ /___ __ / / Eindhoven University of Technology / /___ __ / / / / / / Dept. of Math. and Comp.
