Method for storing and retrieving structured data objects uses a data-processing device with preset functions to apply introspection to the data objects for their analysis.

摘要

A data-processing device (3) with a limited number of preset functional units (6) along with a functional unit with devices (7) for introspection uses introspection of structured data objects (1) and utilization of data (10) about structure and classes gained through introspection to generate individual statements and requests automatically (11). The statements and requests generated automatically through introspection of data objects are executed on a relational database (2) stored on a data carrier (9), in order to achieve generic storage and retrieval of structured data objects. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) A program component for running on a data-processing device with program code devices; (b) and for a system for storing and retrieving structured data objects in relational databases.
