| Abstract | Numerous researchers have pointed out that object-oriented programs are easier to extend than programs which are not written in an object-oriented style, however object-oriented programs are still rigid to adapt and maintain. This paper builds on an extension of object-oriented programming which allows to write more extensible programs, called adaptive programs, without knowing the details of the input language. A specific input language is selected after the program has been written by specifying a grammar, called class dictionary. This paper formally studies class dictionaries and how they help with adaptive programming. A class dictionary is a very high-level language which is 1. concise and expressive to describe important aspects of object-oriented designs and programs, 2. the basis for a theory of object-oriented software engineering, 3. the basis for tools for the object-oriented paradigm. A class dictionary is mapped into classes of an object-oriented programming langu... |
