ABSTRACT:
A method and system of automatically generating information in a grid structure on a display screen. In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to displaying and editing microcontroller chip configuration information. The method involves reading a data file describing a configurable sub-system of the microcontroller, identifying the configurable parameters of the sub-system and constructing a two dimensional display for displaying the values of variables associated with those parameters. The two dimensional display (“display grid”) may contain a row for each parameter, a column for the name of the parameter, and a cell in each row for each variable associated with that parameter. The cells associated with variables can be restricted to accept values chosen from a set enumerated in the data file describing the configurable sub-system. The data file contains all information necessary for generating the grid display, including its width, length, data label information, cell data and data values that can be assigned to cells. A grid generator reads the data file and automatically generates the display grid based on the embedded data definitions.
