Abstract

A system for an object based notification system. The notification system is designed in a flexible manner to support change notification in an object-oriented operating system. The change notification includes a memory for storing connection information including notification routing information and connection registration information. The connection registration information is stored in a connection object of the object-oriented system and the notification system updates the connection object with registration information indicative of enablement or disablement of notification. Then, when a notification event is detected, the object-oriented operating system selectively notifies objects in the system based on the connection registration information stored in the connection object in the memory of the computer system.
