Another very cool thing that we can do now (which would require 3 lines of
change in my system though), is that the slot can also be responsible for
instance migration. There are four cases:
1- the instance variable didn't exist and now it does
2- the instance variable existed but disappeared
3- the metaobject changed (new semantics)
4- the metaobject stayed the same
Did you check the work of fred rivard because he was managing the dynamic
change of class and managing slot reinitialization?
Nope! Thanks for the link. It's just a very small part of my paper
anyway; so it's good to have a more elaborate reference. Basically this
is where I'd like to plug in active context.
