UI-driven model extensibility in multi-tier applications

摘要

A system and method for facilitating modifying a runtime application behavior and/or functionality of a networked software application, whereby UI-driven data model modifications effectively propagate back to the UI of the runtime application. The example method includes employing the runtime user interface display screen to present one or more indicators for one or more customizable user interface features of the runtime user interface display screen; generating one or more signals based upon user input, wherein the user input indicates a modification to be made to the one or more customizable user interface features; initiating one or more changes to a computing object and data model associated with the computing object in accordance with the one or more signals; and displaying a modified user interface display screen in accordance with the one or more changes.
