Traits were introduced by Schärli et al. as reusable units of behaviour. Recently, the stateful version of traits was presented. In our work, we have reused stateful traits for dynamic composition. Dynamic traits can be dynamically bound on an object reference and thus specialize the object behaviour dynamically and contextually. Especially interesting feature of dynamic traits appears to be dynamic overloading mechanism, which can simplify transformations on structured data. This paper presents principles of dynamic traits, motivation examples and the language of dynamic traits.
