Gilgul is a language extension I need to get my mitts in to. From this kaffe page about other projects extending and opening Java which has this to say about it:
- Gilgul is a compatible extension of Java.
- It introduces a new view on the concept of object-identity.
- It allows for dynamic object replacement by simultaneously rerouting a set of references as an atomic operation.
- It thus provides means for unanticipated software evolution.
It's that last lovely bit that has me most excited. I turned this up for roaming around in neighborhood of C & Java porting and colinking.
