Given the following type declarations:
public class Bithuss {
public Bithuss pelPosall(Bithuss knen) {
return this;
}
}
public class Fairte extends Bithuss {
public Bithuss pelPosall(Bithuss knen) {
return new Fairte();
}
}
public class Crodas extends Bithuss {
public Bithuss pelPosall(Bithuss knen) {
return knen;
}
}
...and given the following setup code:
Crodas foo = new Crodas(); Bithuss bar = new Fairte();
Draw an AST for the following expression, labeling the static type (a.k.a. compile-time type) of each node in the tree:
foo.pelPosall(foo.pelPosall(bar))
(The static type of an expression is the type that the compiler uses to check the code before it runs.)
Draw an AST for the same expression, this time labeling the runtime type of each node in the tree.
(The runtime type of an expression is the type of the actual value that appears when the code runs.)
