A method prepares a computer program for operation in a computer supply
system that supplies portions, or program units, of program code or
program data of the computer program as the program needs the portions.
The method includes defining a program unit of the program and removing
the program unit from the program, thereby producing a program skeleton
that is missing the program unit. The method further includes inserting
instructions in place of the program unit in the program skeleton. The
instructions are operative to request the program unit when the program
skeleton encounters the instructions. An information structure includes a
program skeleton of a program. The program skeleton is missing a funclet
of the program, but includes a placeholder in place of the funclet. The
program skeleton additionally includes instructions in place of the
funclet. The instructions are operative to request the funclet when the
program skeleton encounters the instructions.
