  2. Comparison of Java and C++ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Java_and_C++

    Compiled Java code files are generally smaller than code files in C++ as Java bytecode is usually more compact than native machine code and Java programs are never statically linked. C++ compiling features an added textual preprocessing phase, while Java does not. Thus some users add a preprocessing phase to their build process for better ...

  3. Unreachable code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unreachable_code

    But unreachable code may also be part of a complex library, module or routine where it is useful to others or under conditions which are not met in a particular scenario. An example of such a conditionally unreachable code may be the implementation of a general string formatting function in a compiler's runtime library, which contains complex ...

  4. Security of the Java software platform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_of_the_Java...

    The Java software platform provides a number of features designed for improving the security of Java applications. This includes enforcing runtime constraints through the use of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), a security manager that sandboxes untrusted code from the rest of the operating system, and a suite of security APIs that Java developers can utilise.

  5. Runtime library - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runtime_library

    For example, some language features that can be performed only (or are more efficient or accurate) at runtime are implemented in the runtime environment and may be invoked via the runtime library API, e.g. some logic errors, array bounds checking, dynamic type checking, exception handling, and possibly debugging functionality. For this reason ...

  6. Java Native Interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Native_Interface

    In software design, the Java Native Interface (JNI) is a foreign function interface programming framework that enables Java code running in a Java virtual machine (JVM) to call and be called by [1] native applications (programs specific to a hardware and operating system platform) and libraries written in other languages such as C, C++ and assembly.

  7. Foreach loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreach_loop

    The types of objects that can be iterated across (my_list in the example) are based on classes that inherit from the library class ITERABLE. The iteration form of the Eiffel loop can also be used as a boolean expression when the keyword loop is replaced by either all (effecting universal quantification) or some (effecting existential ...

  8. Compatibility of C and C++ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibility_of_C_and_C++

    C++ enforces stricter typing rules (no implicit violations of the static type system [1]), and initialization requirements (compile-time enforcement that in-scope variables do not have initialization subverted) [7] than C, and so some valid C code is invalid in C++. A rationale for these is provided in Annex C.1 of the ISO C++ standard.

  9. Closure (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closure_(computer_programming)

    The term closure is often used as a synonym for anonymous function, though strictly, an anonymous function is a function literal without a name, while a closure is an instance of a function, a value, whose non-local variables have been bound either to values or to storage locations (depending on the language; see the lexical environment section below).
