Post-install configuration of modules during startup of a modular application platform
First Claim
1. A method executing within a computer system having a processor for configuring modules of a modular application platform during run-time of the modular application platform, the method comprising:
- providing a configuration module for executing initial-launch configuration code for one or more configuration pages to obtain configuration information for each configuration page;
defining by the configuration module an abstraction of a configuration page; and
providing by another module an implementation of the configuration page abstraction to provide configuration code for at least one configuration page, such that one or more configuration pages need not be run again during a subsequent start-up of the modular application platform.

Abstract
Described is a configuration module useful for configuring modules of a modular application platform during run-time of the modular application platform. The configuration module produces a graphical dialog that displays a sequence of one or more configuration pages to a user to obtain from the user configuration information for each displayed configuration page. The configuration module defines an abstraction of a configuration page, and other modules of the modular application platform provide implementations of the configuration page abstraction to include at least one configuration page in the graphical dialog produced by the configuration module.
