ABSTRACT:
Systems, methods and computer program products enable framework building by interactively generating a framework corresponding to a design and editing the interactively generated framework to obtain a completed framework. The framework is displayed in various stages of construction or modification using a number of different views including a tree view, a graph view, a method view and an edit view. In addition, parts of the framework are identified as requiring completion, as completed, and as permitting completion. Still further, user methods and framework methods are differentiated. Help guided actions are provided and may be invoked to assist in the development process. Once the framework has been completed, it can be stored in a data model, and code can be generated from the completed framework. Finally, interfaces developed using conventional editors may be parsed and imported into the data model for later code generation. As a result of the present invention, code may be generated based on the completed framework and executed in a distributed computing environment.
