Java Native Access (JNA) provides an interface with native libraries without having to write glue code. Another example is JNR; LuaJIT, a just-in-time implementation of Lua, has an FFI that allows "calling external C functions and using C data structures from pure Lua code". [4] [5]: 35
A wrapper function is a function (another word for a subroutine) in a software library or a computer program whose main purpose is to call a second subroutine [1] or a system call with little or no additional computation. Wrapper functions simplify writing computer programs by abstracting the details of a subroutine's implementation.
In computer programming, a callback is a function that is stored as data (a reference) and designed to be called by another function – often back to the original abstraction layer. A function that accepts a callback parameter may be designed to call back before returning to its caller which is known as synchronous or blocking.
Another example for the potential runtime-settings vulnerability comes from failing to disable PHP execution (for example by using the engine configuration directive) [321] for the directory where uploaded files are stored; enabling it can result in the execution of malicious code embedded within the uploaded files.
In this Java example, the Printer class has a print method. This print method, rather than performing the print itself, forwards to an object of class RealPrinter . To the outside world it appears that the Printer object is doing the print, but the RealPrinter object is the one actually doing the work.
PHP also supports a C-like sprintf function. Code can be modularized into functions defined with keyword function. PHP supports an optional object oriented coding style, with classes denoted by the class keyword. Functions defined inside classes are sometimes called methods.
In the Java virtual machine, internal type signatures are used to identify methods and classes at the level of the virtual machine code. Example: The method String String. substring (int, int) is represented in bytecode as Ljava / lang / String. substring (II) Ljava / lang / String;. The signature of the main method looks like this: [2]
Another example in JavaScript uses the built-in methods of Array: filter somethings . filter ( x => x . count > 10 ) . sort (( a , b ) => a . count - b . count ) . map ( x => x . name ) Note that in JavaScript filter and map return a new shallow copy of the preceding array but sort operates in place.
