Supporting Exceptions to Behavioral Schema Consistency to Ease Schema Evolution in OODBMS

Summary: Supports controlled exceptions to behavioral schema consistency during OODBMS evolution, avoiding costly type-hierarchy and method rewrites. Unsafe statements are detected at compile time and wrapped with automatically inserted runtime checks that warn and invoke programmer-supplied handlers, preserving type safety.
