ABSTRACT:
Noting that there is a case where a type of a pointer “this” in a member function can be specified, the present invention provides a program converting method in which a virtual function call can be converted into a direct function call, and by which improvement of execution performance as well as reduction of a code size of a program can be achieved. The program converting method is a method for converting a program described in an object-oriented language, including: analyzing, in the program, a type of an instance by which a method is called; extracting, from a definition of the method, a virtual method call which is called by the instance; and converting, based on the type of the instance analyzed by the analyzing, the virtual method call extracted by the extracting, into a direct method call.
