Abstract
In one embodiment, a method for communicating messages between components in a client/server environment comprises initiating, in response to a request from an application on a server system, a process for receiving messages from one or more first components associated with a client system, the process initiated using a generalized architecture for communicating messages between components in a client/server application. The method includes registering with the process one or more second components associated with the application, receiving at the process associated with the application a message intended for a second component on the server system, the message initiated by a first component on a client system. The method includes unpacking at least a portion of the received message, determining the second component associated with the server system for which the message is intended, and initiating the second component for which the message is intended in response to the message.
