Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Writing high-performance virtual machines in a high-level language requires an escape-hatch, such that unavoidable low-level tasks can be performed efficiently. To this end, the org.vmmagic framework used by Jikes RVM and other VMs makes it possible to extend the Java language with the needed low-level facilities. For these facilities and the constraints they impose, though, tool support is almost non-existent, making it difficult for implementers not to violate the additional constraints imposed by the language extension. We thus propose an declarative approach based on customizable static analyses to make specification and checking of these constraints easily accessible to implementers.
