ABSTRACT:
A technique enables managing distribution of well-defined objects. The technique involves maintaining a database of well-defined objects and a registry of identifiers. The technique further involves receiving an object request from a client device. The object request includes a particular identifier. The technique further involves providing (i) all of the well-defined objects from the database in response to the well-defined object request when the particular identifier of the well-defined object request is at least as recent as the most recent identifier in the registry, and alternatively (ii) less than all of the well-defined objects from the database in response to the well-defined object request when the particular identifier of the well-defined object request is not as recent as the most recent identifier in the registry. Accordingly, an older client device can be prohibited from receiving a newer well-defined object thereby preventing the older client device from attempting to construct the newer object and inadvertently failing.
