Abstract
A message wizard enables assisted visual development of operations to proce ss an incoming message for an application on a communication device. The wizard provides a series of pages from which a developer can select a desired actio n to perform on a target upon receipt of the incoming message and select a specif ic target comprising at least one data component from a set of candidate data components. The wizard then automatically generates code to implement the selected action on the target. A message page to visualize the message, targ et and the relationship between then and, as applicable, any script generated t o implement the action may also be provided. The wizard may provide a data component type page to select a type of data component and then provide the series of pages in response to the type of data component selected.
Claims (20)
1. A method of enabling assisted visual development of incoming message handling operations for an application on a communication device, the method comprising steps of:
providing an action page from which a user can select a desired action from one or more candidate actions to perform on a target upon receipt of an incoming message;
providing at least one data selection page from which the user can select a specific target comprising at least one data component from a set of candidate data components; and automatically generating code to implement the selected action on the target.
providing an action page from which a user can select a desired action from one or more candidate actions to perform on a target upon receipt of an incoming message;
providing at least one data selection page from which the user can select a specific target comprising at least one data component from a set of candidate data components; and automatically generating code to implement the selected action on the target.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 comprising providing a data component type page from which the user can select a type of data component and wherein the steps of providing an action page and providing at least one data selection page are responsive to the type of data component selected.
3. The method as claimed in claim 2 wherein the step of providing a data component type page presents a plurality of data component types from which the user may select the type of data component, said plurality of types comprising: an independent data component type, a nested data component type and a global variable data component type.
4. The method as claimed in claim 2 or claim 3 wherein the step of providing the at least one data selection page comprises the steps of determining candidate data components in accordance with the type of data component selected and displaying only the candidate data components that are compatible with the type of data component selected.
5. The method as claimed in any one preceding claim wherein the step of providing the at least one data selection page comprises the step of providing an option to define a new data component.
6. The method as claimed in any one preceding claim wherein the step of providing the at least one data selection page comprises the steps of determining a respective primary key for each of the data components of the target in accordance with the type of data component and providing an interface to the user to define the respective primary key.
7. The method as claimed in any one preceding claim wherein the step of providing the at least one data selection page comprises providing the user with an interface to select one or more data fields of the target.
8. The method as claimed in any one preceding claim comprising the step of providing a message page to visualize the message and its relationship to the target.
9. The method as claimed in claim 8 wherein the step of providing a message page comprises providing an interface to graphically illustrate the message, the target, a mapping relationship between the message and the target.
10. The method as claimed in claim 9 wherein the step of providing a message page comprises providing an interface to the auto-generated code, said code comprising a script generated to implement the action.
11. The method as claimed in any one preceding claim wherein the step of providing an action page comprises the step of displaying a warning message about behaviour of the action during runtime of the application.
12. A system for visually assisting an application developer with development of operations to process an incoming message for an application, the system comprising:
a computing device for exchanging data with a data network whereby a wireless application can be uploaded to an application gateway that mediates between the data network and a wireless network serving a plurality of wireless devices to thus enable the wireless devices to download the wireless application;
an application development environment (ADE) running on the computing device, the ADE including a message wizard for visually assisting the application developer with the development of operations to process an incoming message by the application, the ADE including a plurality of graphically presented options for viewing and selecting action target types, action options, and specific targets for the selected actions, whereby the ADE visually guides the application developer through the creation of the message and then automatically generates code for executing operations defined by the message.
a computing device for exchanging data with a data network whereby a wireless application can be uploaded to an application gateway that mediates between the data network and a wireless network serving a plurality of wireless devices to thus enable the wireless devices to download the wireless application;
an application development environment (ADE) running on the computing device, the ADE including a message wizard for visually assisting the application developer with the development of operations to process an incoming message by the application, the ADE including a plurality of graphically presented options for viewing and selecting action target types, action options, and specific targets for the selected actions, whereby the ADE visually guides the application developer through the creation of the message and then automatically generates code for executing operations defined by the message.
13. The system as claimed in claim 12 wherein the ADE comprises a message wizard for graphically presenting the options in a sequence of pages including:
an action page to enable the developer to select a desired action to perform on the target upon receipt of the incoming message; and at least one data selection page to enable the developer to select a specific target comprising at least one data component from a set of candidate data components; and a code auto-generator for automatically generating the code that is capable of executing the action on the target upon receipt of the message.
an action page to enable the developer to select a desired action to perform on the target upon receipt of the incoming message; and at least one data selection page to enable the developer to select a specific target comprising at least one data component from a set of candidate data components; and a code auto-generator for automatically generating the code that is capable of executing the action on the target upon receipt of the message.
14. The system as claimed in claim 13 wherein the sequence of pages further includes a data component type page from which the user can select a type of data component and wherein the presentation of the action page and the at least one data selection page is responsive to the type of data component selected.
15. The system as claimed in claim 13 or claim 14 wherein the at least one data selection page comprises an interface to specify a primary key for the data component selected.
16. The system as claimed in any one of claims 13 to 15 wherein the at least one data selection page further comprises an option to define a new data component.
17. The system as claimed in any one of claims 13 to 16 wherein the sequence of pages further includes a message page to visualize the message and its relationship to the target.
18. The system as claimed in claim 17 wherein the message page provides an interface to graphically illustrate the message, the target and a mapping relationship between the message and the target.
19. The system as claimed in claim 17 or claim 18 wherein the message page provides an interface to the auto-generated code, said code comprising a script generated to implement the action.
20. A computer program product having computer readable code embodied therein, for execution by a processor of a computing system, said code configuring the processor to implement the method of any one of claims 1 to 11.
