Abstract

This paper presents linguistic primitives for publish/subscribe programming using events and objects. We integrate our primitives into a strongly typed object-oriented language through four mechnisms: (1) serialization, (2) multiple subtyping, (3)closures, and (4) deferred code evaluation. We illustrate our primitives through Java, showing how we have overcome its respective lacks. A precompiler transforms statements based on our publish/subscribe primitives into calls to specifically generated typed adapters, which resemble the typed stubs and skeletons by the rmic precompiler for remote method invocations in Java
