Problems solved by technology

For example, spreadsheet applications are generally good at generating tables of data and graphs of the data in those tables, but are poor at generating complexly formatted text files
Word processing applications, on the other hand, tend to be easy to handle the generation of highly formatted text files, but generally less capable of handling data tables and graphics

Embodiment Construction

[0013] figure 1 A computer system 10 implementing the object linking interface of the present invention is shown in simplified block diagram form. Computer system 10 includes a central processing unit 12 that operates according to instructions stored in its memory 14 . Input / output (I / O) circuitry 16 interfaces central processing unit 12 with one or more input devices 18 and output devices 20 . Input device 18 may include, for example, a keyboard, keypad, infrared emitter, sound detector, light pen, mouse, touch screen or other suitable device or device for entering commands into the computer. Output device 20 may include, for example, a display or other peripheral device connected through an I / O port in I / O circuitry 16 . The computer system 10 may also contain a mass storage device 22, such as a hard disk drive, a floppy disk drive, a PCMCIA flash drive, or an optical disk drive.

Abstract

An object-linking interface for a computer system dynamically links a selected target object within an host application with a second user application. The operating environment includes a plurality of means testers, each of which is associated with a specific user application, and an object mapper. The means tester is passed a copy of the target object and tests the suitability of the associated application for processing the target object and generates a corresponding likelihood score. The object mapper queries each means tester to obtain the likelihood score and identifies, based upon said likelihood score, one or more applications suitable for processing the target object.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to computer software integration and more particularly to a method of sharing and manipulating software objects among software objects of a plurality of different, independent software applications. Background of the invention [0002] In today's computer industry, there are software applications that serve a wide variety of user needs. Individual applications are typically optimized to perform well in certain functional areas and to be suboptimal or minimally useful in other functional areas. For example, spreadsheet applications are generally good at generating tables of data and graphs of the data in those tables, but perform poorly at generating complexly formatted text files. Word processing applications, on the other hand, tend to be easy to handle the generation of highly formatted text files, but are generally less capable at handling data tables and graphics. Due to the clear delineation of the functions of t...
