Kilim syntax<br />
• Syntax same as Java, with additional type qualifiers: @free,<br />
@cuttable, @safe and we add @readonly.<br />
• These qualify classes marked as Message.<br />
• Fields of Message <strong>types</strong> can only be other Message <strong>types</strong> and<br />
Java primitive <strong>types</strong>.<br />
• Design choice: Message <strong>types</strong> are trees and have no heap<br />
aliasing. Subversive question: what does<br />
class Tree { Int val; Tree left,right; }<br />
define in Java? A tree? A graph?<br />
• Only Message <strong>types</strong> can be transferred between actors [next<br />
slide].<br />
