Abstract
An interactive development environment receives developer inputs to develop or customize modeled types. A compilation agent receives a request from the IDE to compile the modeled types that the developer is developing or customizing. The compilation agent accesses a cache of previously compiled types and determines which of the individually loadable types are to be re-compiled based upon the changes made by the developer, and compiles only those identified types. The re-compiled types are also stored in cache.
