Abstract
A multi-component control technique includes a first component and a second component. The first component is supplemental code or evaluation engine as specified by a modification to a set of received originally compiled executable code. The modification to the original executable code ensures that, upon execution, the supplemental code (such as an evaluation engine) as specified by the modification is executed upon initial instantiation or use of the application. The second component is a retrievable and executable policy such as a set of rules fetched and used by the supplemental code to control the functionality supported by the originally compiled executable code of the corresponding application. An application administrator can produce the retrievable policy to control functionality of the originally compiled executable code.
