摘要：A relationship-based inherited attributes system provides an Inheritance Tablewhere each object in the table has an Inherited Object ID. Each ID is listed with all of theID's that the object inherits from with sequence number that indicates the order of the

inheritance in the hierarchy. A Relationship Table is provided and contains a RelationshipID, a Role, and an Assigned Object ID. To find up all of the objects participating in acertain relationship, the server looks for all the rows that have a particular relationship IDin the relationship table. The invention provides an Assignment Table where the serverobtains a value by correlating the list of objects obtained from the Inheritance andRelationship tables. The value may need to be processed further and is passed to aJavaScript routine named in the table. The server refers to an Attribute Voter Table whenmultiple values result and conflicts arise because of this situation. The Attribute VoterTable contains Attribute ID, Role, and Sequence Number fields where the SequenceNumber indicates the Role's priority. An Attribute Definition Table is provided to resolvemultiple set of roles obtained from the Attribute Voter Table down to one value or setof values. A Resolution Strategy is used to resolve conflicts that arise when the serverSQL query returns a such a list of items.
