Methods and systems for distributing software
First Claim
1. A method for distributing customized software from a first system to a second system, comprising:
- customizing, by a processor of the first system, a software object by making changes to the software object, wherein a copy of the software object before customization is being used on the second system;
creating, by the processor of the first system, a transport request comprising an object list;
defining, by the processor of the first system, a transport container;
including, by the processor of the first system, a key of the software object into the transport container, wherein the key identifies the changes made to the software object;
including, by the processor of the first system, the transport container in the object list of the transport request; and
providing, by the processor of the first system, the transport request to the second system.

Abstract
Systems and methods consistent with the invention relate to the distribution of software. According to one exemplary embodiment, a method for distributing software from a first system to a second system may comprise determining a software object to be transported. The method may then create, on the first system, a transport request comprising an object list. The method may also define, on the first system, a transport container and include the software object in the transport container. Further, the transport container may be included in the object list of the transport request. The transport request may then be provided to the second system.

20. A method for distributing software from a first system to a second system, comprising:
-
customizing, by a processor of the first system, a software object by making changes to the software object, wherein a copy of the software object before customization is being used on the second system; generating, by the processor of the first system, a transport request including an object list that identifies the software object; defining, by the processor of the first system, a transport container for the software object, wherein the transport container is included in the object list, wherein the transport container includes a key of the software object that identifies the changes made to the software object; and distributing, by the processor of the first system, the transport request to the second system.
