Method of organizing a system of software objects having attributes, which comprises: - a step of forming a hierarchical tree of groups of objects called "contexts", the tree comprising a root context in which all the other contexts and all the objects are found, each object of said tree being in a so-called context; - a step of forming, for each of a plurality of contexts, a so-called "global" subcontext so as to expose objects from a point of the tree of contexts, each global subcontext serving to expose objects globally from a branching point to the entire subtree, each object that is placed in a global context being made available to all the objects of the context in which the "global" context in question, referred to as the "parent" context, and all the subcontexts of the parent context are found; - a step of forming, for each of a plurality of contexts, a so-called "contextualization" directory of values of attributes for the objects of said context; - a step of allocating, to at least one attribute of an object of the tree to be displayed, the value of the higher-rank attribute of the same name and the same type, to which a value has been allocated in a contextualization directory; - a step of determining objects to be displayed; and - a step of displaying each object to be displayed with its attributes and the values of its attributes, taking contextualization directories into account, when an attribute in a contextualization directory of a context or subcontext containing said object has been allocated a value, the value of the compatible attribute of the edited object taking the value of the contextualization directory of the higher level context for which the attribute has been given a value, each context automatically inheriting attribute values associated to the higher level context to which said context belongs. - a step of forming a hierarchical tree of groups of objects called "contexts", the tree comprising a root context in which all the other contexts and all the objects are found, each object of said tree being in a so-called context; - a step of forming, for each of a plurality of contexts, a so-called "global" subcontext so as to expose objects from a point of the tree of contexts, each global subcontext serving to expose objects globally from a branching point to the entire subtree, each object that is placed in a global context being made available to all the objects of the context in which the "global" context in question, referred to as the "parent" context, and all the subcontexts of the parent context are found; - a step of forming, for each of a plurality of contexts, a so-called "contextualization" directory of values of attributes for the objects of said context; - a step of allocating, to at least one attribute of an object of the tree to be displayed, the value of the higher-rank attribute of the same name and the same type, to which a value has been allocated in a contextualization directory; - a step of determining objects to be displayed; and - a step of displaying each object to be displayed with its attributes and the values of its attributes, taking contextualization directories into account, when an attribute in a contextualization directory of a context or subcontext containing said object has been allocated a value, the value of the compatible attribute of the edited object taking the value of the contextualization directory of the higher level context for which the attribute has been given a value, each context automatically inheriting attribute values associated to the higher level context to which said context belongs. <EOS>
