Abstract

See full text

An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for facilitating dynamic modification of existing software objects defined in a strongly-typed programming language. The apparatus includes an invocation framework, an embedder, a reference component, and a development reference component. The invocation framework is configured to pass a loosely-typed base object between a source component and a destination component. The embedder embeds a business object within the base object. The business object is defined at least in part by a type definition having a set of attributes and a name value uniquely associating the type definition to the business object. The reference component references the base object such that typing requirements of the business object are not explicitly enforced in a runtime environment. The development reference component references the type definition within a development environment such that typing for the business object is fixed during source code development and deployment.
