When Apple announced Swift 2 at the World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC) in 2015, they also declared that Swift was the world's first protocol-oriented programming language. By its name, we may assume that protocol-oriented programming is all about the protocol, however, that would be a wrong assumption. Protocol-oriented programming is about so much more than just the protocol; it is actually a new way of not only writing applications but also how we think about programming. In the first four chapters, we take an in-depth look at each of the components of the protocol-oriented programming paradigm. These chapters are designed to give the reader a solid understanding of the different components of protocol-oriented programming, so he/she will understand how they can use these components in their applications. One of the biggest misconceptions about protocol-oriented programming is that it is just another name for object-oriented programming. In Chapter 5, Object-Oriented Programming and Chapter 6, Protocol-Oriented Programming we take on this myth by comparing protocol-oriented programming to object-oriented programming to see what is similar and what is different. We also discuss

  • The Common Lisp Object System: an Overview
    The Common Lisp Object System: An Overview by Linda G. DeMichiel and Richard P. Gabriel Lucid, Inc. Menlo Park, California 1. Abstract The Common Lisp Object System is an object-oriented system that is based on the concepts of generic functions, multiple inheritance, and method combination. All objects in the Object System are instances of classes that form an extension to the Common Lisp type system. The Common Lisp Object System is based on a meta-object protocol that renders it possible to alter the fundamental structure of the Object System itself. The Common Lisp Object System has been proposed as a standard for ANSI Common Lisp and has been tentatively endorsed by X3J13. 2. History of the Common Lisp Object System The Common Lisp Object System is an object-oriented programming paradigm de- signed for Common Lisp. The lack of a standardized object-oriented extension for Common Lisp has long been regarded as a shortcoming by the Common Lisp community. Two sepa- rate and independent groups began work on an object-oriented extension to Common Lisp several years ago. One group is Symbolics, Inc. with New Flavors, and the other is Xerox PARC with CommonLoops. During the summer of 1986, these two groups met to explore combining their designs for submission to X3J13, a technical working group charged with producing an ANSI standard for Common Lisp. At the time of the exploratory meetings between Symbolics and Xerox, the authors of this paper became involved in the technical design work. The major participants in this effort were David Moon and Sonya Keene from Symbolics, Daniel Bobrow and Gregor Kiczales from Xerox, and Richard Gabriel and Linda DeMichiel from Lucid.

  • The Early History of F
    The Early History of F# DON SYME, Microsoft, United Kingdom Shepherd: Philip Wadler, University of Edinburgh, UK This paper describes the genesis and early history of the F# programming language. I start with the origins of strongly-typed functional programming (FP) in the 1970s, 80s and 90s. During the same period, Microsoft was founded and grew to dominate the software industry. In 1997, as a response to Java, Microsoft initiated internal projects which eventually became the .NET programming framework and the C# language. From 1997 the worlds of academic functional programming and industry combined at Microsoft Research, Cambridge. The researchers engaged with the company through Project 7, the initial effort to bring multiple languages to .NET, leading to the initiation of .NET Generics in 1998 and F# in 2002. F# was one of several responses by advocates of strongly-typed functional programming to the “object-oriented tidal wave” of the mid-1990s. The 75 development of the core features of F# 1.0 happened from 2004-2007, and I describe the decision-making process that led to the “productization” of F# by Microsoft in 2007-10 and the release of F# 2.0. The origins of F#’s characteristic features are covered: object programming, quotations, statically resolved type parameters, active patterns, computation expressions, async, units-of-measure and type providers. I describe key developments in F# since 2010, including F# 3.0-4.5, and its evolution as an open source, cross-platform language with multiple delivery channels. I conclude by examining some uses of F# and the influence F# has had on other languages so far.

  • Quick Reference
    APPENDIX ■ ■ ■ Quick Reference This appendix covers the new keywords introduced in C++/CLI, specifies which are also reserved words, and defines and lists contextual keywords and whitespaced keywords. This appendix includes a reference table for features available in native, mixed, pure, and safe modes. You’ll also find a summary of the syntax introduced in C++/CLI. Keywords and Contextual Keywords Some new keywords were introduced in the C++/CLI bindings. Many new keywords introduced in C++/CLI are sensitive to the context in which they are used, so as to avoid creating new reserved words in order not to interfere with existing identifiers. When used in the proper syntactic position, contextual keywords are interpreted with the keyword meaning. When used in any other posi- tion, they may be used as identifiers. This enables your code to continue to use a variable that happens to collide with a C++/CLI contextual keyword without any special marking or modifi- cation. This also enables C++/CLI to use keywords that otherwise would be common variable names. There are several new keywords that are not contextual, as described in Table A-1: gcnew, generic, and nullptr. Table A-2 shows the new contextual keywords. Table A-1. C++/CLI Keywords Keyword Description Usage gcnew Allocates instances of reference R^ r = gcnew R(); types on the garbage-collected (managed) heap generic Declares a parameterized type generic <typename T> ref class G { /* ... */ }; (generic) that is recognized by the runtime nullptr Evaluates to the null value for R^ r = nullptr; a pointer, indicating an unassigned pointer 355 356 APPENDIX ■ QUICK REFERENCE Table A-2.

  • Compiling Scheme to .NET CLR
    Vol. 3, No. 9 Special issue: .NET Technologies 2004 workshop, Pilsen Bigloo.NET: compiling Scheme to .NET CLR Yannis Bres, INRIA Sophia-Antipolis, France Bernard Paul Serpette, INRIA Sophia-Antipolis, France Manuel Serrano, INRIA Sophia-Antipolis, France This paper presents the compilation of the Scheme programming language to .NET. This platform provides a virtual machine, the Common Language Runtime (CLR), that executes bytecode, the Common Intermediate Language (CIL). Since CIL was designed with language agnosticism in mind, it provides a rich set of language constructs and functionalities. As such, the CLR is the first execution environment that offers type safety, managed memory, tail recursion support and several flavors of pointers to functions. Therefore, the CLR presents an interesting ground for functional language implementations. We discuss how to map Scheme constructs to CIL. We present performance analyses on a large set of real-life and standard Scheme benchmarks. In particular, we compare the speed of these programs when compiled to C, JVM and .NET. We show that in term of speed performance of the Mono implementation of .NET, the best implementing running on both Windows and Linux, still lags behind C and fast JVMs such as the Sun’s implementations. 1 INTRODUCTION Introduced by Microsoft in 2001, the .NET framework has many similarities with the Sun Microsystems Java Platform [11]. The execution engine, the Common Language Runtime (CLR), is a stack-based Virtual Machine (VM) which executes a portable bytecode: the Common Intermediate Language (CIL) [10]. The CLR enforces type safety through its bytecode verifier (BCV), it supports polymorphism, the memory is garbage collected and the bytecode is Just-In-Time [1,21] compiled to native code.
