Recompilation management

 

Recompilation management helps the programmer recompile only what is necessary after a change to a unit signature or unit body.

Type-safe linking prevents the programmer from creating unsafe or meaningless programs. The load function and the batch linker ensure probabilistically type-safe linking, so it is virtually impossible to cause the system to create a type-unsafe program.
