Abstract

A method and system for processing statements of a first language embedded in a program having statements of a second language are described in various embodiments. Statements of the first and second languages are compiled into an executable program, the executable program including original executable instructions associated with the statements of the first language. The executable program is executed, and during execution, recompilation conditions are detected for statements of the first language. In response to the recompilation conditions, selected statements of the first language are recompiled, during execution of the executable program, into new executable instructions. The new executable instructions are respectively associated with the selected statements and are executed in place of the original executable instructions.
