ABSTRACT:
A software class including known system events is imported into the palette of a development tool. After selecting a class for import, all variables and methods in the class meeting predetermined criteria are discovered. The variables are marked as properties, the methods as actions and the system events as events. A capture method is generated to capture the events and forward them to the development tool. Then, an invoke method is generated to execute each of the actions, a set method is generated to set a value for each of the properties, and a get method is generated to retrieve each value. Finally, a new subclass comprising the capture method, the invoke method, the set method and the get method is generated and added to the palette.
