Extending the Java Language with Dynamic Classification
By: Liwu Li
Abstract
A dynamic classification feature of an object-oriented programming language allows an object to change its class membership without changing its identity at runtime. The new membership of the object can be signified with a role, which is taken on by the object and which can be implemented as an object of the target class.
