  • Method and apparatus for creating executable code for object-oriented objects having finite state machine
    Patent number: 5920718
    Abstract: A graphical control system for automatically generating application program shell code in an object-oriented system. The graphical control system allows a user to easily enter object information and associated control information in a single graphical user interface. The system automatically generates application shell code according to the operating system environment in which the system is running and the user entered object and object control information. The invention eliminates the need to program in or edit control application code by hand for each object defined in the application. Also, the control code for each object is directly associated with the object during construction and therefore is created in the same desired location as that of the object data.
