  • Publication number: 20190213018
    Abstract: A method displays a user interface including an activation entry for the activation entry and receives a first value that is input for the activation entry. In response to receiving the first value, the method determines an activator entry that is linked to the activation entry via linking information. The activator entry includes an activator value. The first value is compared to the activator value to calculate a visibility status for the activator entry. The user interface is altered based on the visibility status of the activator entry.

  • Publication number: 20190129731
    Abstract: A method receives a resource adapter for use in connecting a first source to a second source. The resource adapter is parsed to determine a resource adapter configuration in a hierarchical format that includes activation entries and activator entries. A user interface is displayed including the activation entries with inputs for values and a value that is input for an activation entry is received. The method accesses one or more of the activator entries to determine an activator entry that is linked to the activation entry via linking information. The activator entry includes an activator value. The method compares the inputted value to the activator value to determine a visibility status for the activator entry and dynamically causes a change to the visibility status of the activator entry on the user interface based on the comparing.

  • Patent number: 9959099
    Abstract: Methods and system are disclosed that instantiate an on demand functionality for a layer in a multilayered system. In one aspect, a framework integrated with the multilayered system may receive a request to create a root function. The root function may be associated with common functionalities or specific functionalities. Based on parameters associated with the layers and attributes associated with data flow paths between the layers, a layer to deploy the root function may be determined. Upon deploying the root function, sub functions may be created in the determined layer by the framework. The sub functions may be configured common functionalities or specific functionalities by the framework. A function model including the root function and the sub functions may be generated. The function model may be instantiated to provide an on demand functionality or an on demand application.
