Virtualized and realized user interface controls

摘要

One aspect relates to a process and associated apparatus that implements a user interface (UI) control within a computer environment. The computer environment includes a managed code portion and a native code portion. The implementing the UI control includes creating a plurality of control node data structures within the managed code portion. A managed UI control is virtualized within the managed code portion by associating and/or batching at least two of the control node data structures. The UI control is realized in the native code portion by migrating the managed UI control into the native code portion. In certain aspects, the UI control is populated and parented prior to the realizing.
