Abstract

A data structure format conversion system comprising a front end converter, a back end converter, and a converter executive. The front end converter converts a source data structure in a source format to data in an intermediate format. The back end converter converts the data in the intermediate format to a target data structure in a target format. Finally, a converter executive controls the front end converter and back end converter to effect a conversion from the source data structure in the source format to the target data structure in the target format, through the intermediate format.
