Abstract

See full text

An Object-Action Manager shields an applications developer from multiple display technologies and development tools and assists the developer in applications user interface creation. The manager includes a parser, an object-list builder, dialog-box builder, a library of access functions and a display handler. The object-list builder and dialog-box builder are used to build user interface screen definitions according to predetermined parameters. The parser reads a developer-defined description file and builds data structures. The object-list builder and dialog-box builder use the data structures to customize the user interface screens for the developer. The library contains functions used during operation of the user interface. The display handler manages interaction between the end-user and the developed application.
