Abstract
A method and system for reusing code extensions prepared by a user or developer are disclosed. The extensions are handled as method implementations and stored in the method body, in a persistent storage model. Thus when the source code is regenerated after a change is made to the metadata in an object, its method body attribute is retrieved intact and the user/developer does not need to re-enter the extensions into the object to be edited.
