Software evolution demands continuous adaptation of software systems to continuously changing requirements. Our goal is to cope with software evolution by automating program transformation and system reconfiguration. We show that this can be achieved with a static metaprogramming facility and a library of suitable metaprograms. We show that former approaches of program transformations are not sufficient for large object oriented systems and outline two base transformations that fill the gap.
