Expand description
Metaclasses are powerful, potentially complex, and somewhat controversial. Some experienced programmers decry their use, yet many others recognize their value and promote them as an important concept that will improve the quality of software production while reducing costs. This book illustrates the difficult concepts, demonstrates proven application techniques, and enables programmers to put metaclasses to work. The debate over this technology is sure to heat up, and this book is the first to describe how metaclasses can be used in a practical setting.
