Abstract

Design and Implementation of the Larch/C++ Type System
by
Matthew W. Markland
Abstract
This paper describes the design of a type system for the Larch/C++
specification language. To motivate the features of the type system,
the type systems of both the Larch Shared Language and C++ are
described. After this background, an informal description of the
Larch/C++ type system is followed by a formal presentation of the type
rules. The implementation of an infrastructure for the type system is
then described.
Keywords: Specification languages; Larch; LSL; Larch/C++; type systems.
