Gilad Bracha has accepted an invitation to give a talk at the
workshop, and he will talk about mixins in Strongtalk:
Mixins in Strongtalk
We describe the use and implementation of mixins in the
Animorphic Smalltalk system, a high performance Smalltalk virtual
machine and programming environment.
Mixins are the basic unit of implementation, and are directly
supported by the VM. At the language level, code can be defined
either in mixins or in classes, but classes are merely sugar for
mixin definition and application.
The Strongtalk type system supports the optional static
typechecking of mixins in an encapsulated manner. Mixins are
used at key points in the library. The system substantially
outperforms existing Smalltalk implementations.
The topics of the talk are presented in the
paper Mixins in Strongtalk which is available here:
