blog/the-dynamic-features-of-java

The existence of dynamic features built in the language allows Java developers to transform their program executions at runtime dynamically. However, these features in most Java programs are a fundamental problem for static analysis tools that rely on precise call-graph construction. Notably, the GraalVM compiler relies on points-to analysis to perform AOT compilation. This blog post covers the main dynamic features of Java and the reasons why they are still a long-standing issue for researchers and practitioners in program analysis.

Hello, Cesar! I might have a possible correction for you to make, or I did not interpret the text correctly.

Now, we have to create a new .cpp file for the implementation of the execute function.

Given the example snippet, isn't sayHello the native function? If yes, sayHello should be implemented in the C++ code rather than execute.

Hi @algomaster99, thanks for your comment and the remark. You're right! I should have defined sayHello() in the C++ code, not in the execute() function. I have edited the text in the corresponding section 😄.

Thanks!
