Crossing State Lines: Adapting Object-Oriented Frameworks to Functional Reactive Languages

Overview Functional reactive programming integrates dynamic dataflow with functional programming to offer an elegant and powerful model for expressing computations over time-varying values. Developing realistic applications, however, requires access to libraries, such as those for GUIs, that are written in mainstream object-oriented languages. Previous work has developed functional reactive interfaces for GUI toolkits but has not provided an account of the principles underlying the implementation strategy. This paper investigates this problem by studying the adaptation of the object-oriented toolkit MrEd to the functional reactive language FrTime.
