A Stub Generation System for C
GD Parrington · 1995
ABSTRACT: This paper describes the implementation of a Stub Generation system targeted specifically at C++. It enables distributed C++ applications to be constructed in a sraightforward manner with minimal programmer assistance. The system does not require the use of an auxiliary interface definition language but instead processes existing C++ header files to maximize transparency. The generated code exploits the power of C++ by using operator overloading for paramet€r marshalling and constructors and destructors to drive the remote binding process. The system described here is fully implemented and can be obtained as part of the Arjuna programming system. Modern computing and networking hardware makes the physical interconnection
