Abstract
Binding can automatically take place between controls and information sources at runtime. This minimizes an amount of code that is to be generated by a user and thus can lower errors from the code. In addition, some wizards that allow binding without code writing can become problematic since some information is not available at runtime (e.g., when the wizard operates prior to runtime.) Relevant information is received and at least one binding is created based off received information.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A system, comprising:
a communication component that obtains data that relates to runtime operation of an application; and a bind component that creates a link between a control and information based at least in part on the obtained data.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the bind component can use a name convention to create the link.
3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the bind component creates at least two links, wherein at least one link integrates with a first application and at least one link integrates with a second application.
4 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising an add component that populates an index with at least one piece of data during runtime, wherein the communication component obtains at least one piece of index data.
5 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising an authentication component that determines if operation of the bind component is proper.
6 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising an analysis component that determines at least one asset related to a control.
7 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising an aggregation component that builds information based on material from at least two sources, wherein the information is provided to the bind component for linkage.
8 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising a search component that performs an investigation to locate data for obtainment by the communication component.
9 . The system of claim 1 , wherein at least two details are disclosed, a first detail discloses at least one link that was created and a second detail discloses at least one link that was intended to be created, but was not created.
10 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising an artificial intelligence component that makes at least one inference or at least one determination or at least one of each in relation to creation of a link between a control and information.
11 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising a display component that presents at least one control linked with information through the bind component.
12 . A method for automatic binding, comprising:
analyzing at least one control on a form; and matching at least one control with at least one property.
13 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising receiving a control name, a query, a property, or a combination thereof.
14 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising indexing at least one query, at least one property, or at least one of each.
15 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising determining a control type.
16 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising integrating the control with a graphical user interface.
17 . The method of claim 16 , further comprising presenting the graphical user interface.
18 . A system for binding generation at runtime, comprising
means for analyzing a model; and means for binding the model to at least one control.
19 . The system of claim 18 , wherein the means for binding the model to at least one control utilizes a master-detail implementation.
20 . The system of claim 18 , wherein the control integrates with a graphical user interface.Cited by (0)
