DYNAMIC CODE GENERATION AND MEMORY MANAGEMENT FOR COMPONENT OBJECT MODEL DATA CONSTRUCTS

Dynamic code generation and memory management techniques are provided for component object model (COM) objects with corresponding representations in script code and native code. A browser component can receive script code including the code representing the COM object and a marshaling component is provided that marshals, based on a request for native code representing the COM object, the code representing the COM object to the native code based on a pre-constructed intermediate data structure. The pre-constructed intermediate data structure, such as a virtual table, is pre-constructed based on a dynamic type representation associated with a prototype of the COM object and cached for re-use by the marshaling component. Other embodiments provide finalizer support for memory management of COM objects having script and native world representations including an implementation of a two-phase commit protocol that enables efficient and conservative recycling of objects and associated memory.
