ABSTRACT:
A JAVA package (1) usable by a JAVA application (26, 27) to control home network devices is provided, which comprises an adapting means (12) and a device controlling means (16), wherein said device controlling means (16), which provides device specific functionality to control said home network devices, is adaptable by said adapting means (12) to a changing home network device status resulting from home network device correlated events registrated by a managing layer (2, 3). Advantage of this lean architecture of said JAVA package (1) is an easy extendibility and low complexity.
