Abstract
In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a technique for reifying generic types while maintaining migration compatibility. According to this technique, the actual type parameters that should be associated with a raw type, but which are not expressed in a binary file, are dynamically inferred at run time. The actual type parameters are inferred based on the run time usage of an object that is an instance of the raw type.
