Software linking system in information processor

Abstract

A software linking system in an information processor having an operating system in which plural sets of software are operable, includes an information obtaining means for obtaining information within the information processor, an anchor identifying means for judging whether or not there exists anchor information for specifying a linkage condition under which linking-source software recognizes linked software on the basis of the information obtained by the information obtaining means, and a linkage executing means for executing the liked software performing an linking operation corresponding to the anchor information identified by the anchor identifying means, whereby an anchor process is executed outside the linking software without changing the linking software and a file in a format thereof with the result that the software runs both on a linking source side and on a linked side.
