component architecture
     
         A notion in {object-oriented} programming where
        "components" of a program are completely generic.  Instead of
        having a specialised set of {methods} and {fields} they have
        generic methods through which the component can advertise the
        functionality it supports to the system into which it is
        loaded.  This enables completely {dynamic loading} of
        {objects}.  {JavaBeans} is an example of a component
        architecture.
     
        See also {design pattern}.
