A system and method is provided for facilitating and implementing an efficient
mechanism for performing an interface dispatch. The system and method retrieves
source code and performs a pre-execution or preparation stage prior to execution
of the source code. During the pre-execution stage memory is allocated for class
types, class method tables are formed and interface virtual tables are formed.
A block of memory is also allocated for an interface map in the form of a vector
having a plurality of slots. The system and method packs the interface map with
references to the interface virtual table locations utilizing a comb-vector technique.
