Abstract
The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates controlling and customizing the process of generating a software program image. During operation, the system receives a set of files for building a software program, wherein at least one of the files in the set is an intermediate code file that was at least partially compiled from a source code file of the software program. The system then applies a plurality of pluggable transforms to a plurality of states of the set of files to produce a particular subsequent state of the set of files. The system then produces a runtime-image of the software program from at least the particular subsequent state of the set of files, the runtime-image including one or more files for execution by a virtual machine and one or more output resources to be accessed by the one or more executed files.
