Abstract

If legacy code has to be integrated into an application, it is often necessary to call this code available as source code written in a particular programming language or available in binary format for a particular computing platform from another programming language or from a remote machine. For this reason, wrapping code has to be developed for each source code library or binary code to be integrated. This paper presents an extensible framework that supports legacy code integration by modeling legacy code not only in a way that is programming (language) independent, but also by supporting different input and output types and bindings. This aim is achieved by the use of an integrated plug-in mechanism.
