Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for class splitting in object-oriented environments in which objects are created by classes. Data is analyzed, in response to generating an instance of an original class in a code component. Fields are separated into sets based on the code paths that access the fields. A split class is generated for a set of fields which shares a common interface with the original class. Cells are replaced in the code component to the original class with a split class.
