Abstract

This invention provides for the implementation of dynamic “event to method” adapter class generation. Event to method adapter classes and objects are automatically and dynamically generated and wired to source and target objects as required using a runtime environments language such as the Beans Markup Language (BML). Adapter classes and objects are automatically and dynamically generated as required while the application program loads and runs. Dynamically generated classes and objects need to exist only at the time that a running application calls for the adapters use, and can be dynamically modified or exchanged in order to optimize the running application or modify application functionality.
