Abstract

See full text

Digital signatures of various aspects or characterizing indicia of object code classes are used to determine whether a compiled class has built-in assumptions about external classes that are incorrect due to modification and recompilation of the external class. The indicia generally involve an encoding of the layout of various run time structures in the external class such as field tables or method tables.
