Hello, I'm a veteran software engineer and programmer. I'm contributing to articles about software engineering, agile development, requirements, modeling, software architectures and frameworks, design patterns, object-oriented programming, etc. Below is my own learning portal. Hope it's helpful to you, too.

Name binding (Static/early, Dynamic/late), Dynamic dispatch

Since C++ does not support late binding, the virtual table in a C++ object cannot be modified at run-time, which limits the potential set of dispatch targets to a finite set chosen at compile-time.

VB.NET and C# make use of the Strategy pattern to accomplish cross-language inheritance, whereas Java makes use of the Adapter pattern[citation needed].
