SYSTEM AND METHOD OF REPRESENTING DATA ENTITIES OF STANDARD DEVICE APPLICATIONS AS BUILT-IN COMPONENTS

摘要

A system and method for developing a standard data component for coupling with a plurality of components of a component-based application to access a stored data entity of a non- component-based native application, the applications for executing in a runtime environment of a device. The system and method comprises an application module configured for storing a model of the component-based application including features of data and message component definitions expressed in a structured definition language. Also included is a native module configured for storing properties of the data entity of the native application and a standard module for generating the standard data component definition based on the features of the component-based application and the properties of the data entity of the native application. The standard data component definition is expressed in the structured definition language.
