| 20090276405 | SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR GENERATING A SET OF INSTRUCTIONS TO AN ON-DEMAND DATABASE SERVICE - In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for generating a set of instructions to an on-demand database service. These mechanisms and methods for generating a set of instructions to an on-demand database service can enable embodiments to generate instructions capable of operating on objects, without having any knowledge of the objects on which the instructions are going to operate, until runtime. The ability of embodiments to provide this instruction generation may allow generic instructions to be generated, independent of the objects on which they will operate. | 11-05-2009 |
| 20110283181 | Test Framework of Visual Components in a Multitenant Database Environment - Disclosed herein are techniques for testing a page. In some implementations, an intermediate representation of a page is created. The page may be defined by a page description implemented in a markup language. The page description may refer to data accessible via a data model. The intermediate representation may include at least a portion of the data accessible via the data model. The intermediate representation may be capable of being rendered to create a rendered page. The rendered page may be capable of being displayed on a display device. A determination may be made as to whether a test value for a portion of the intermediate representation matches an expected value for the portion of the intermediate representation. When the test value does not match the expected value, an indication of an error may be stored. | 11-17-2011 |
| 20110283267 | Test Framework of Visual Components in a Multitenant Database Environment - Disclosed herein are techniques for compiling a procedure for testing a page. In some implementations, a component definition for a component instance referred to in computer programming language instructions defining a test procedure for testing a page may be received. The page may be defined by a page description implemented in a markup language. The page description may include a reference to a first portion of a component instance. Compiled wrapper code operable to simulate the presence of the component instance may be generated. The compiled wrapper code may represent the first portion of the component instance referenced in the page description. A compiled test procedure may be generated based on the computer programming language instructions. The compiled test procedure may include the compiled wrapper code. The compiled test procedure may be capable of being executed to perform the test procedure. | 11-17-2011 |
| 20110289140 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PROVIDING A USER INTERFACE IN A MULTI-TENANT DATABASE ENVIRONMENT - Methods, devices and systems for providing a user interface in an on-demand software service environment are described. Some implementations involve receiving a component request from a first client device and building or retrieving component definitions corresponding to the component request. The implementations may also involve instantiating the component definitions and obtaining data and metadata for the component instances. Such implementations may also involve serializing the component definitions, component instances, the data and the metadata, and returning a response to the first client device. The response may include serialized instantiated component definitions, serialized data for the instantiated component definitions and serialized metadata for the instantiated component definitions. | 11-24-2011 |
| 20110289141 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PROVIDING A USER INTERFACE IN A MULTI-TENANT DATABASE ENVIRONMENT - Methods, devices and systems for providing a user interface in an on-demand software service environment are described. Some implementations involve sending a request from a first apparatus to a second apparatus and receiving a response from the second apparatus. The response may include serialized instantiated component definitions, serialized data for the instantiated component definitions and serialized metadata for the instantiated component definitions. Such implementations may involve deserializing the response to create a metadata structure, traversing the metadata structure to create an instance data structure, traversing the instance data structure to render or re-render a page and displaying the page on a display of the first apparatus. | 11-24-2011 |
| 20110289425 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PROVIDING A USER INTERFACE IN A MULTI-TENANT DATABASE ENVIRONMENT - Methods, devices and systems for providing a user interface in an on-demand software service environment are described. Some implementations involve displaying a rendered page, detecting the firing of an event in the rendered page and determining an event type for the event. The implementations may also involve ascertaining whether an action associated with the event is implemented in a server-side language or a client-side language, locating handlers for the event according to the event type and performing a handler execution process. These implementations may also involve executing a component re-rendering process to create a re-rendered page and displaying the re-rendered page. The component re-rendering process may be based, at least in part, on output from the handler execution process. | 11-24-2011 |
| 20110289476 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PROVIDING A USER INTERFACE IN A MULTI-TENANT DATABASE ENVIRONMENT - Methods, devices and systems for providing a user interface in an on-demand software service environment are described. Some implementations involve receiving a component request from a first client device, locating class-level definition source code for a component definition corresponding to the component request, identifying the component definition within the source code, determining a language of the component definition and selecting a parser according to the language of the component definition. Such implementations may also involve parsing the source code to create the component definition and transmitting an intermediate representation of the requested component to the client device. The intermediate representation may allow the client device to create an instance of the requested component. | 11-24-2011 |
| 20110289479 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PROVIDING A USER INTERFACE IN A MULTI-TENANT DATABASE ENVIRONMENT - Methods, devices and systems for providing a user interface in an on-demand software service environment are described. Some implementations involve receiving an indication of a component definition to instantiate. The component definition may be a portion of a component definition data structure. Such implementations may also involve instantiating the provided component, instantiating all remaining attributes of the component definition data structure to produce a component instance data structure and transmitting an intermediate representation of the indicated component to a client device. The intermediate representation may comprise a version of the component instance data structure. The intermediate representation may allow the client device to create an instance of the component in memory. | 11-24-2011 |
