Method and computer program for rendering assemblies objects on user-interface to present data of application
First Claim
1. A method for rendering an assembly of a first object and a second object on a user-interface of a device, the device being either of a first type or of a second type, the first and second objects presenting data of an application, the method comprising:
- providing an interpreter specific for an application specification language used to write the application;
storing the interpreter in the device;
receiving an application specification document by the device, the application specification document having a statement with an indication to render the first and second objects in the assembly;
interpreting the statement of the application specification document using the interpreter to identify a presentation pattern for the assembly from predefined first and second presentation patterns according to the type of the device; and
rendering the assembly of the first and second objects on the user-interface according to the presentation pattern identified during the interpreting of the statement.

Abstract
A user-interface of a device renders a first object and a second object, each object with data of a business application. The device is either of a first type or of a second type. In the device, an interpreter receives an application specification document with a statement. The statement indicates to render the first and second objects in an assembly. The interpreter identifies a presentation pattern for the assembly from predefined first and second presentation patterns according to the type of the device so that the assembly is rendered according to the presentation pattern.

8. A computer-program product to visually render a first object and a second object in an assembly on screen of a computing device, the objects presenting data of an application on a computer that is at least temporarily coupled to the computing device, the device being either of a first type or of a second type, the computer-program product having instructions that cause a processor of a computing device to:
-
provide an interpreter specific for an application specification language used to write the application;
store the interpreter in the computing device;
receive an application specification document from the computer, the application specification document having a statement with an indication to render the first and second objects in the assembly;
interpret the statement of the application specification document using the interpreter to identify a visual presentation pattern for the assembly from predefined first and second visual presentation patterns according to the type of the device; and
render the assembly of the first and second objects on the screen according to the visual presentation pattern identified in the interpreting step.

9. A method for creating an application system operating with a computing device, the method comprising:
-
defining a user-interface model;
defining an application specification document by a meta-language;
customizing a workbench component that identifies constraints on the validity of the application specification document;
defining layout themes for the computing device;
realizing the user-interface model in an interpreter component; and
realizing the layout-themes in the interpreter component. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
