ABSTRACT:
Method and means are described which provide a way for an application program to be generated to include dependent control blocks which indicate which support programs must be initialized in the run-time support environment prior to the application program's initialization and which must be terminated after its termination. Since support programs may be dependent on each other, a topological sort is performed to determine an order in which the support programs can be initialized so that no routine is initialized before all of its prerequisites are initialized. The initialization order is saved, so that following the execution of the program, termination can be performed in the reverse order.
