  • System and method for generating user interface code
    Patent number: 7243334
    Abstract: A system for generating user interface code is provided. The system includes a user interface class system generating a user interface class that has two or more user interface features that can be assembled into a user interface by an operator, such as field entry prompts and data display fields. The system also includes a handler class system generating one or more states for each user interface feature of the user interface class, such as to navigate through the field entry prompts and data display fields. The user interface class system, in conjunction with the handler class system, generates the user interface code that causes the selected user interface features and associated states for the user interface features to be generated.

  • System and method for client-server communication
    Publication number: 20030172092
    Abstract: A system for facilitating data communications between a client and a server is provided. The system includes a server thread system that receives client logon data and a request packet. The server thread system maintains a client process while the client is logged on to the server that allows the state of client-server communications to be determined. The system also includes a process thread system that is connected to the server thread system. The process thread system receives process initiation data from the server thread system and initiates a process in response to the process initiation data.
