Abstract
A component customization and distribution system in an object oriented environment provides a template builder utility which enables a base component to be selectively modified and the modifications to the base component stored as a template. The template builder utility enables selection of a base component, modification to the state of persistent data of the base component, storing of the modifications to the persistent data of the base component into a template format, and user-password locking of the template. The template builder utility further enables generation of user-defined instructions as part of the template and generation of a template distribution pack. The distribution pack includes a self-executing installation program which installs any templates contained within the distribution pack on a recipient component system. Also disclosed are methods for generating distribution pack.
