Metaobject Protocol

--Originally published at diegotc2016

According to Wikipedia the metaobject protocol provides the vocabulary to access and manipulate the structure and behavior of objects.

The main functions of the MOP are:

  • Creating and deleting new clases
  • Creating new methods and properties
  • Changing the structure of clases so that clases can inhert from other classes
  • Make or modify code for defining methods of a class

The MOP allows a system to modify the internal structure of objects.

I investigated more about the MOP and there’s a book about it which is called the Art of the Metaobject Protocol.
