Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015014957A1] The invention relates to a computer-implemented method for connecting business objects in a software application (SA), wherein - the software application comprises a connector (K), wherein the connector comprises a code identifying an abstract business object class (ABO1 to ABOn), - the software application identifies the abstract business object class specified in the connector at runtime in a hierarchy of abstract business object classes, and - the software application, at runtime - proceeding from the identified abstract business object class, identifies at least one concrete business object class (KBO1 to KBOn), directly or indirectly derived therefrom, and - establishes a connection (V) in at least one instance (I1 to In) of the at least one identified concrete business object class, via which connection the software application accesses attributes and methods of the instance of the concrete business object class. The invention furthermore relates to a correspondingly adapted computer program product.
