1. A method for generating an object oriented application for an object oriented environment, said object oriented environment comprising a programming model and a data model, said method comprising the steps of: generating a computer program design for said object oriented model application using a modeling tool; and mapping the modeling tool generated computer program design to the data model of said object oriented environment to thereby create metadata in said data model wherein said mapping step comprises defining a first package, wherein said first package partitions the computer program design into at least two parts without requiring reference to model semantics.
4. The generating method according to claim 1, wherein said computer program design mapping step further comprises the steps of: defining a second package, wherein said second package is contained in the first package; and mapping the second package to at least one of a file and a module in the data model.
