Dynace

Dynace Object-Oriented Extension to C

Dynace is a portable, open-source extension to the C language that adds the following capabilities to standard C:

• full object-oriented capabilities including
  • classes, instances, methods, & generic functions
  • encapsulation
  • polymorphism
  • inheritance (multiple)
• fully meta-class based (like Smalltalk)
• dynamic binding and dispatching through generic functions (like CLOS)
• garbage collection
• threads (supports cooperative and native threads)
• full class library

Dynace:

• written in standard C
• includes over 300 pages of documentation (https://blakemcbride.github.io/Dynace/manual/Dynace.pdf)
• step-by-step tutorials
• using classes involves no new syntax elements to standard C
• easily added to existing C code

Dynace is portable across:

• 16, 32 & 64 bit environments
• Linux
• Mac OS X (intel & M?)
• Windows (all versions)
• BSD
• Solaris / OpenIndiana
• Haiku

Dynace is production quality and has been used in commercial environments for more than ten years.

Dynace was written to solve perceived problems with C++ as outlined in the user manual.
