  2. Object copying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_copying

    The copy feature effects a shallow, field-by-field copy from one object to another. In this case no new object is created. In this case no new object is created. If y were copied to x , then the same objects referenced by y before the application of copy , will also be referenced by x after the copy feature completes.

  3. Copy-on-write - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copy-on-write

    Copy-on-write (COW), also called implicit sharing [1] or shadowing, [2] is a resource-management technique [3] used in programming to manage shared data efficiently. Instead of copying data right away when multiple programs use it, the same data is shared between programs until one tries to modify it.

  4. Comparison of programming languages (syntax) - Wikipedia

    The above trick used in Python also works in Elixir, but the compiler will throw a warning if it spots this. To suppress the warning, one would need to prepend the sigil ~S (which prevents string interpolation) to the triple-quoted string, leading to the final construct ~S""" ... """. In addition, Elixir supports a limited form of block ...

  5. Property list - Wikipedia

    This cannot be captured in an XML file. Converting such a binary file will result in a copy of the data element being placed into the XML file. Additionally the binary file has a UID type that is used to identify data items when serialized. The complete list of data that can be stored taken from the C code source file is as follows:

  6. Marshalling (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshalling_(computer_science)

    Marshalling is similar to or synonymous with serialization, although technically serialization is one step in the process of marshalling an object.. Marshalling is describing the overall intent or process to transfer some live object from a client to a server (with client and server taken as abstract, mirrored concepts mapping to any matching ends of an arbitrary communication link ie.

  7. List of file copying software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_copying_software

    This article provides a list of inbuilt and third party file copying and moving software - utilities and other software used, as part of computer file management, to explicitly move and copy files and other data on demand from one location to another on a storage device. File copying is a fundamental operation for data storage. [citation needed ...

  8. Hard coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_coding

    One important case of hard coding is when strings are placed directly into the file, which forces translators to edit the source code to translate a program. (There is a tool called gettext that permits strings to be left in files, but lets translators translate them without changing the source code; it effectively de-hard codes the strings.)

  9. Constructor (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructor_(object...

    Like C++, Java also supports "Copy Constructor". But, unlike C++, Java doesn't create a default copy constructor if you don't write your own. Copy constructors define the actions performed by the compiler when copying class objects. A Copy constructor has one formal parameter that is the type of the class (the parameter may be a reference to an ...
