  2. Dynamic dispatch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_dispatch

    The purpose of dynamic dispatch is to defer the selection of an appropriate implementation until the run time type of a parameter (or multiple parameters) is known. Dynamic dispatch is different from late binding (also known as dynamic binding). Name binding associates a name with an operation. A polymorphic operation has several ...

  3. Multiple dispatch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_dispatch

    Multiple dispatch or multimethods is a feature of some programming languages in which a function or method can be dynamically dispatched based on the run-time (dynamic) type or, in the more general case, some other attribute of more than one of its arguments. [1]

  4. Fragile base class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragile_base_class

    The fragile base class problem has been blamed on open recursion (dynamic dispatch of methods on this), with the suggestion that invoking methods on this default to closed recursion (static dispatch, early binding) rather than open recursion (dynamic dispatch, late binding), only using open recursion when it is specifically requested; external ...

  5. Object-oriented programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming

    This feature is known as dynamic dispatch. If the call variability relies on more than the single type of the object on which it is called (i.e. at least one other parameter object is involved in the method choice), one speaks of multiple dispatch. A method call is also known as message passing. It is conceptualized as a message (the name of ...

  6. Inheritance (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

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

    Because the exact type of the object being referenced is known before execution, early binding (also called static dispatch) can be used instead of late binding (also called dynamic dispatch), which requires one or more virtual method table lookups depending on whether multiple inheritance or only single inheritance are supported in the ...

  7. Name binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_binding

    Dynamic binding (or late binding or virtual binding) is name binding performed as the program is running. [2] An example of a static binding is a direct C function call: the function referenced by the identifier cannot change at runtime. An example of dynamic binding is dynamic dispatch, as in a C++ virtual method call.

  8. Talk:Late binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Late_binding

    AFAIK, there is no built-in Dynamic Binding mechanism in C++, though a number of frameworks provide their own (like Qt and its meta-classes). It's probably because of the confusion introduced by Java where Dynamic Dispatch is commonly used as a synonym for dynamic dispatch. --93.185.19.62 13:02, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

  9. Double dispatch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_dispatch

    The call is therefore subject to all the usual additional performance costs that are associated with dynamic resolution of calls, usually more than in a language supporting only single method dispatch. In C++, for example, a dynamic function call is usually resolved by a single offset calculation - which is possible because the compiler knows ...
