Abstract

A system and method can support context-dependent expression compilation in a programming language environment. A compiler in the programming language environment can provide one or more context objects that operate to compile various context-dependent expressions in different programming contexts. Then, the compiler can use a said context object to derive a target type associated with a context-dependent expression, and use the context object to perform compatibility check for the context-dependent expression in the programming language environment.
