Controlling a running application for live scene graph editing

摘要

In general, in one aspect, the invention relates to a computer readable medium including software instructions for performing a method, the method including receiving, by a content server, a first request from a client for an application content file, wherein the application content file is associated with a first Java network launch protocol (JNLP) file, providing, in response to the first request, the application content file; receiving, from the client, a second request to edit the application content file, providing, in response to the second request, an application designer tool to the client; receiving, from the client, an altered application content file generated using the application designer tool, generating a second JNLP file associated with the altered application content file, and providing, to a webserver, the second JNLP file.

主权项

1. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising software instructions for performing a method, the method comprising:
receiving, by a content server, a first request from a client for an application content file, wherein the application content file is associated with a first Java network launch protocol (JNLP) file, wherein the content server is executing on a first computing system, wherein the client is executing on a second computing system, and wherein the first computing system is a separate device from the second computing system; providing, in response to the first request, the application content file, wherein the application content file is used to instantiate an application instance operating in a runtime environment on the client; receiving, from the client, via the application instance, a second request to edit the application content file; sending, to the client and in response to the second request, an application designer tool file,
wherein the application designer tool file is used to edit the application content file contemporaneously with the execution of the application instance to generate an altered application content file, andwherein the application instance is changed within the runtime environment to incorporate alterations made in the altered application content file; receiving, from the client, the altered application content file generated using the application designer tool file; generating a second JNLP file associated with the altered application content file; and providing the second JNLP file.
