Abstract
Methods and systems to compile a code module to permit a caller routine to pass a parameter to a callee routine of a separately compiled code module, and to permit a callee routine to receive a parameter from a caller routine of the separately compiled code module, through multiple interfaces. Interfaces may include an interface by convention and an alternate interface. A caller routine may be configured to pass a parameter through an alternate interface and call to an alternate entry point of a callee routine. An associated stub routine may be configured to pass the parameter through an interface by convention and to call to a conventional entry point of the callee routine. If the callee routine includes a corresponding alternate entry point, the caller routine may be linked to the alternate entry point. Otherwise, the callee routine may be linked to the callee routine through the stub routine.
