These changes were originally implemented as custom work for Configura on the custom/cet/main branch. With permission from the customer (see e-mail from Göran Rydqvist) we apply them to the public MPS, and integrate the custom documentation and interfaces into the public manual and headers.
The custom interfaces are as follows:
The Transforms interface provides a mechanism to rewrite references throughout the MPS-managed heap;
The Arena extension/contraction callbacks provide a mechanism for the client to register stack decoding callbacks on Windows managed runtime;
The hash arrays flag for allocation points prevents the MPS from aggressively collecting address-based hash tables.
