Since you are in Java and there are no free standing procedures all
you need to do is convert operators to internal method names and apply
them.


if + corresponds to _opPlus then A + B becomes A,_opPlus( B );


Then let the method resolution do its thing.
For errors convert the _opPlus back to + in the message.
