Systems and methods for adapting service interface behaviors
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of adapting interfaces comprising:
- receiving an adapter specification;
receiving a plurality of communication actions from a first software component;
transforming one or more of the communication actions in accordance with predefined interface operations; and
sending transformed communication actions to a second software component,wherein the adapter specification specifies one or more predefined interface operations to be used in transforming one or more corresponding communication actions.

Abstract
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a computer-implemented method of adapting software component interfaces by providing a user interface for specifying a provided interface, a required interface and interface operators. In another embodiment the present invention includes a computer-implemented method of adapting interfaces comprising receiving an adapter specification, receiving a plurality of communication actions from a first software component, transforming one or more of the communication actions in accordance with predefined interface operations; and sending transformed communication actions to a second software component.

11. A computer-implemented method of adapting interfaces comprising:
-
displaying at least a portion of a first interface in a graphical user interface, the first interface including a first plurality of communication actions; displaying at least a portion of a second interface in a graphical user interface, the second interface including a second plurality of communication actions; displaying a plurality of predefined interface operators for adapting communication actions between the first interface and the second interface, wherein a user selects one or more predefined interface operators and couples one or more of the selected predefined interface operators between one or more particular communication actions in the first interface and one or more particular communication actions in the second interface. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
