Walkabout Revisted: The Runabout
Christian Grothoff.
Presented at ECOOP 2003
This paper presents a variation of the visitor patter which allows programmers to write visitor-like code in a concise way. The Runabout is a library extension which adds a limited form of multi-dispatch without requiring changes to Java syntax or the compiler
