METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENABLING AGILE DEVELOPMENT OF SERVICES IN CLOUD COMPUTING AND TRADITIONAL ENVIRONMENTS

摘要

Prepending a name object or setting a type of a software object to a name and prepending a value object to the software object provides inheritance of a name value pattern by the software object to establish particular types or classes of attributes of the software object without modification of the software object itself that is thus strongly typed and accessible by type.

1. A method of providing flexibility at the attribute level of a software object in custom software where the type of attribute can be set to a name and each name can be associated with an optional name object, said method comprising steps of
setting a type of attribute of said software attribute, and prepending a value object specifying a value to said software attribute, whereby said name of said name object and said value of said value object form a name value pattern that is inherited by said software attribute.
