Why is JIT compilation considered dynamic ?

Posted by Mustafa Ozgen on 28 Jun 1998, 11:28 AM

Inside the Note box, you say JIT is an example of
dynamic compilation. I think it is a static compilation
because there is no run-time information available yet to
the JIT compiler when it is run. Or am I missing
something ?
