Abstract
A method for loading applications into an embedded system from a station on which the source code of the application is written, compiled, verified and converted. The conversion includes the performance of the static linking of a plurality of sets of packages, called modules, and an application program interface module or a service module corresponding to an application, and consists of assigning an identifier to each module and a reference number to each class, each method and each attribute. The reference to a method or an attribute in the linked pseudocode of a module is coded in three bytes referencing a class internal or external to the module, the number of the class, and either the number of the method or the number of the attribute, a reference to an external class being interpreted as a reference to an API module.
