My colleagues and I are implementing a new back-end for our Mercury compiler
that will produce Java code as its target language. One issue that
has arisen is that our source language allows procedures with multiple
output arguments (a.k.a. multiple return values). What's the best way
to compile this to Java?


Pointers to any relevant literature would be appreciated.
