Abstract
We discuss some of the issues
involved in implementing functional languages on object-oriented virtual
environments (VE) such as Java Virtual Machine and Microsoft's .NET. The
paper concentrates on how functional languages type systems can be supported
in these OO-typed evironments, and on how functional and OO languages can
interwork. Mondrian, a new functional language specifically designed for
such environments, is introduced as an example.
