Abstract

In an embodiment, a method is provided for updating a computer program. In this method, a record related to a data structure being effected in the updating of the computer program is identified. Here, the data structure is accessible by the computer program. Additionally, a request is received during the update of the computer program to access a further record related to the data structure. The further record in the request is identified to match the record effected in the updating of the computer program. The request is thereby prevented from accessing the further record related to the data structure based on the further record matching the record related to the data structure
