Abstract

In an object-oriented application, a preparation process is used when compiling the sources of the application, a configuration process is used when link-editing, and a communication process is used during execution to call up methods for objects. No adaptation of sources is necessary when a system configuration is changed. This also applied to an extension of the object-oriented application.
