Abstract

Traditionally books on compiler construction focus on procedural languages leaving some questions on compilation of object-oriented languages unanswered. This article presents some problems found in the building of a compiler for the object-oriented language Green using Java. The solutions used for these problems are exposed and whenever possible alternatives are discussed. We hope to provide programmers with some hints and caveats on compilation of object-oriented languages.
