Abstract: Embodiments create a binding specifications file that is compatible with a user interface application from a grammar rich XML file. The grammar rich XML file uses a complex DTD for transformation. The complex DTD may be prone to error if created by the user, therefore, the complex DTD file is automatically created from a schema definition provided by the user or user's agent. The user or user's agent defines a schema for the desired grammar level. Through a series of XSL transformations, the complex DTD file is created. Also, a stylesheet used for transforming the grammar rich XML file is automatically created. The grammar rich XML file provided by the user conforms to the automatically created complex DTD file. Thus, the grammar used in defining bindings of a user interface application is extensible without any requirement to enrich and recompile the application anytime an extension of the language is desired.

Abstract: An embodiment of the invention includes a method and apparatus for enabling application components to communicate through connection points. Embodiments of the invention include a communication manger allowing application components that implement connection points and listeners to communicate without having prior knowledge of each other's implementation. Application components implement connection point containers that register with a communication manager. Application components may broadcast events and messages to other components and request to be notified when an application component implementing a given type of connection point registers with the communication manager. Other embodiments of the invention implement proxy classes, which allows for automatic generation of connection point classes.
