Lines: 21 Nntp-Posting-Host: carthage Since 2.0 seems to be shipping now, It is time to ask this question. Does anybody know about loading up classes dynamically? I know IB uses it, and I'm under the impression that 2.0 will have facilities to do so in general. I'm also interested in loading other kinds of object files dynamically, so that functions could be compiled and linked into a running program. My impression is that all this is done at the Mach level. Any info/pointers to documentation etc would be helpful.
