Abstract:
Roles can be used to overcome some composition limitations in Object Oriented Languages and contribute to a better code reuse, reducing code replication and improve code maintenance. Therefore, the refactoring of legacy code to roles is an important step in maintaining and evolving this code. In this paper, we present refactorings to convert a system to roles We also present some refactorings that enable roles to be even more reusable.
