IMPROVED TRANSFORMATION OF SOURCE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE CODE

摘要

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for converting computer program source code from a first high level language to a functionally equivalent second high level language different from the first high level language. Source code in a first high level language that includes implicitly created temporary objects is analyzed. Source code in the second high level programming language is generated that is functionally equivalent to the source code in the first high level programming language. The second high level language does not support temporary objects. For temporary objects identified in the first high level source language, source code is generated to explicitly create and track a corresponding object within a similar scope. In addition, source code is generated to destroy the explicitly created object at a time that generally corresponds to destruction of the temporary object in the original source language.
