Abstract

A device and a method is provided for the management of software modules and objects, in particular control units of a motor vehicle, in a database in which the objects are stored and in which at least one software module for provision of at least one function of the object, is associated with a respective object. The method includes acquiring compilable source code developed in a programming language at an operating interface for the at least one software module, generating generation of an abstract syntactic structure, in particular an abstract syntax tree, of the software module by syntactic analysis of the source code, storing the abstract syntactic structure in the database, and establishing establishment of at least one logical connection between the object and the abstract syntactic structure of the software module.
