The Art of Calling Methods Jochen „blackdrag“ Theodorou About blackdrag • Working on Groovy Core since about 2005 • Almost as long as that Tech Lead of Groovy • Currently Employed at VMWare, in the SpringSource Devision • Responsible for most of the technical side of Groovy Email: blackdrag@ Fibonacci – My fav. Example • n-1/n-2 are method calls • a+b is a method call int fib(int n) { if (n2) return 1 • fib(x) is a method call return fib(n-1) • All method calls are + fib(n-2) } „dynamic“, meaning they can for example be replaced at runtime Implementation Techniques: Runtime AST interpreter / compiler / reducer / optimizer / inlining / ... Not yet done by Groovy, I skip it here Implementation Technique: Central Invoker Groovy 1.0.x / Groovy 1.5.x public int fib(int n) { //GROOVY 1.5.x Integer nInt = n; if (ScriptBytecodeApareLessThan (nInt, 2)) return 1; Object n_1 = ScriptBytecodeAdapter.invokeMethodN ( Fib2.class, nInt, minus, new Object[]{1}); Object fib_n_1 = ScriptBytecodeAdapter.invokeMethodN ( Fib2.class, this, fib, new Object[]{n_1}); Object n_2 = ScriptBytecodeAdapter.invokeMethodN ( Fib2.class, nInt, minus, new Object[]{2}); Object fib_n_2 = ScriptBytecodeAdapter.invokeMethodN ( Fib2.class, this, fib, new Object[]{n_2}); Object ret = ScriptBytecodeAdapter.invokeMethodN ( Fib2.class, fib_n_1, plus, new Object[]{fib_n_2}); return Defa
