Abstract

Mechanisms for binding an event handler with an event in association with a component of a hierarchical structure are provided. The mechanisms receive a structure document specifying an event, an event handler, and a binding of the event handler with the event. The mechanisms further associate the event and event handler with one or more nodes of a hierarchical model of the hierarchical structure stored in a storage device of the data processing system. Moreover, the mechanisms bind the event handler with the event for the one or more nodes in accordance with the hierarchical model. In addition, the mechanisms generate one or more objects for implementing the hierarchical structure in a framework corresponding to the hierarchical model. The structure document specifies the event binding of the event handler with the event type in a declarative manner.
