classesmetamorphic
Classesmetamorphic is a theoretical term used to describe a property of software systems in which class definitions and their inheritance or composition graphs can transform while preserving externally observable behavior. The idea sits at the intersection of metaprogramming, polymorphic design, and language theory, and it is often discussed as a speculative or exploratory concept rather than a widely standardized pattern.
In a classesmetamorphic view, a set of metamorphic rules governs allowed transformations of classes. Transformations might
Realization of metamorphic behavior can rely on reflection, code generation, dynamic proxying, or language features that
Potential applications include adaptive software architectures, version-tolerant APIs, and testing scenarios that explore different internal representations
