1. A method for managing application programs in a digital electronic device, the method comprising the steps of:
- creating a plurality of bus listener objects in an object framework of the device;
defining a plurality of bus addresses, each corresponding to one and only one of the plurality of bus listener objects;
receiving a value from a process;
writing the value in a bus address; and
a bus listener object to which the bus address corresponds responding to a change in value stored in the bus address by invoking an object method associated with the address.
