Abstract
A proxy component system having dispatch proxies and object proxies is disclosed. The computerized system includes an operating system supporting component interfaces. In addition, the system includes a first interface to a target component, with the first interface having an early bound method. The system further includes a second interface to a proxy component, with the second interface having a late bound method. Also included in the system is a dispatch proxy operative to invoke the early bound method of the first interface from an invocation of the late bound method of the second interface.
