A method for providing access to application data items of an application program,
said application data items being contained in a plurality of interconnected data
objects processed by said application program, comprises the steps of receiving
a request related to at least one of said application data items, said request
referring to a data object of said plurality of data objects, fulfilling said request
with respect to said data object referred to by said request, and if said request
concerns at least one other data object of said plurality of data objects, forwarding
said request to said at least one other data object for further processing of said
request. A computer program product and an apparatus comprise corresponding features.
The invention provides a way of accessing application data items that is very flexible
and can in particular be used with complex application data structures comprising
a plurality of interconnected data objects.
