Research And Implementation On Uniform Framework Of Presentation Layer Based On Configuration

With the rapid development of enterprise applications, the software becomes more demanding. In enterprise application software development, the user interface development has a huge workload Undoubtedly, improve the efficiency of the development of user interface is an effective way of improving the efficiency of software development.Now, the research and development of user interface is focused on the development of tools for generating user interface automatically and the research of model-based user interface auto-generation. These tools and models increased the development of user interface both in theory and practice. But some models and tools is only used to describe the user interface. They are just ways of coding user interface. They do not put the development of user interface into the entire architecture of the software development, Unable to support the entire software development process.This paper realized a Presentation Layer framework. It integrates the technology of user interface auto-generation into the entire architecture of software development. And it proposes Uniform Interface Controller and Uniform Data Model for managing the user interface and its data in a uniform way. Framework is a hot topic in software engineering field. It's developed based on the same thoughts of software reuse as components and design patterns.The approach of user interface auto-generation uses the technique of self-adapting template, partitions the user interface into several different function areas. Each area is realized and managed by a self-adapting template.Uniform Interface Controller manages different interfaces in the same way. It manages the life cycle of the interface and the event in the interface. It likes a bridge between Presentation Layer and Domain Logic Layer, as the main control components of the Presentation Layer contact with the business application processor directly.Uniform Data Model is the abstract presentation of data. It is different with the traditional object-oriented designing. Taking the attribute of the objects and its operating characteristics together, it can represent every data object.This paper introduces the design and realization of the framework, and gives a simple example with its use.
