Abstract

See full text

A method, program product, and system create visual representations of iterator link objects. A graphical user interface of the present invention enables users to visually program iterative applications without having to use a programming language. The graphical user interface includes an iterator link object which is capable of removably linking a source object having multiple elements to a target object. On the occurrence of a trigger event, an action iterates over each individual element of the source object and is targeted to the target object. Therefore, the present invention enables the user to visually link multiple source objects to a target object. Furthermore, by utilizing more than one iterator link object, linked objects can be chained linked to other linked objects.
