What languages support Meta Object Protocol?

At run time, Car itself is a type object. The source code of the Car class, shown above, does not include such details as the size in bytes of Car objects, their binary layout in memory, how they are allocated, that the __init__ method is automatically called each time a Car is created, and so on. These details come into play not only when a new Car object is created, but also each time any attribute of a Car is accessed. In languages without metaclasses, such as Java, these details are defined by the language specification and can't be overridden. In Python, the metaclass, type, controls these details of Car's behavior. They can be overridden by using a different metaclass instead of type.
