Abstract
Operations include a compilation process and a runtime process. A compiler compiles code to generate virtual machine instructions. The compiler further generates information referencing respective parameter types of the parameters of a target virtual machine instruction. The compiler stores the information external to and in association with the target virtual machine instruction. The information may be included in another virtual machine instruction that precedes the target virtual machine instruction. A runtime environment processes the target virtual machine instruction based on the information stored external to and in association with the target virtual machine instruction. Parameter types referenced by the external information override parameter types that are (a) referenced by the target virtual machine instruction itself, (b) deduced by the runtime environment and/or (c) stored directly in association with the parameter values.
