(1) Be very clear in your design about which objects are shared and
which are not.
(2) Immutable objects can be shared safely. Mutable ones are much
much harder to work with.
(3) Lazy initialisation does not work well in concurrent programming,
*except* when you are
constructing an immutable
Thanks for pointing out the relationship. I had actually been looking
for an implementation of the old OOPSLA paper intermittently over a few
months. Never would have occurred to me that this is one. The curse of
coy package names...

Firstly, I would like to focus on various database d

like you said, were about type conversions, similar like we have in other
languages.
#printString and the others remember me the special method in Python
__str__ or __unicode__ which allow change the default re
