Abstract: A computer-implemented system may include reception of a user interface package at a client device, the user interface package including layout information and a data model, the layout information conforming to a user interface model of a backend service provider and the data model conforming to a business object model of the backend service provider. The layout is rendered at the client device based on the user interface model, data input to the rendered layout at the client device is received, the data is stored at the client device in conformance with the business object model, and the data is transmitted from the client device to the backend service provider.

Abstract: In one embodiment, data in an application floorplan is exposed in a controlled way for integrating new external services to the application floorplan. Service definitions of the external service for integration with the application floorplan is generated. Further, a semantic type data of a global data type used in the application floorplan is generated. Upon generating the semantic type data, a semantic type mapping of an instance of the semantic type data is generated. Furthermore a map between a service parameter of the external service and the semantic type mapping is presented. Thereby, the application floorplan and the external service are integrated by executing the external service in the application floorplan using the generated map.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for executing, by a first framework, a service provided by a second framework. The method may include initiating, by the first framework, a request to access the service provided by the second framework. The method may also include identifying metadata for the service, the metadata being stored in a metamodel runtime repository. The method may further include translating the metadata into a format that the first framework can use to invoke the service and executing, using the translated metadata, the service provided by the second framework.

Abstract: A system and method for message lifetime management. According to an embodiment of the invention, a front-end application process identifies during a user interface interaction cycle of the front-end application process at least one stateful message reported to the front-end application process by a back-end service process during a prior user interface interaction cycle of the front-end application process, the at least one stateful message having been stored in a message buffer by the front-end application process, queries the back-end service process to determine whether the at least one stateful message is currently valid, and removes the at least one stateful message from the message buffer if it is determined not to be currently valid.

Abstract: Generally, systems and methods permit customized delivery of messages to a user depending on the specific requirements of a user interface. A processing layer between a business object and a user interface may determine, for a received message, an appropriate rule for the target user interface. The message rule may be applied, and depending on the rule, the message may be delivered to the user.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for handling a notification message in an enterprise services framework, including in response to the saving of a transaction, sending a notification message to the enterprise system framework, the notification message containing an associated message class including information of message severity and message symptom. The framework includes a controller layer situated between a service management layer and a business object layer, the controller layer maintaining a message registry database which collects and stores the notification message and the information of message severity, message symptom, and message identification. A system and method is provided for the hierarchical handling of software objects, including providing software objects, each associated with a user interface message, hierarchically associating the user interface messages, and displaying those messages in a tree structure in association with each of the software objects.

Abstract: A method and system for integrating an external service are provided. A first definition of a service for integration with an application floorplan is generated. A semantic type data having a second definition of a global data type used in the application floorplan is generated. A semantic type mapping having a third definition of an instance of the semantic type data in a data object used in the application floorplan is generated. A map is generated between a service parameter of the service and the semantic type mapping. The service is executed in the application floorplan using the map.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are generally directed to a system and method for enterprise data objects. An enterprise data object is a container of data that can be used in a wide range of technical and semantic layers within a business system. In particular, enterprise data objects provide high-level interfaces that can be used to access and manipulate complex and structured data.
