Generic interface
View Patent ↗A system and process for ensuring the smooth flow of electronic ink is described. Dynamic rendering is given priority over other event handlers. Priority may be the use of one or more queues to order when events occur and may be performing dynamic rendering prior to other steps.
1. A computing device having stored a non-transitory thereon computer-useable instructions that, when executed, cause the computing device to perform a method for communicating between a component and plug-in objects, the method comprising:
receiving a data packet at the component, component including a synchronous interface and an asynchronous interface;
placing the data packet at a location;
notifying a list of plug-in objects to the existence of the data packet, the list of plug-in objects includes at least one of a dynamic renderer or a gesture recognizer;
processing the data packet through the list of plug-in objects through the synchronous interface; and
processing the data packet through another list of plug-in objects through the asynchronous interface, the another list of plug-in objects including at least an ink collection object.
2. One or more non transitory computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, facilitate a method for communication between a component and plug-in objects, the method comprising:
receiving a data packet at the component, the component including a synchronous interface and an asynchronous interface;
placing the data packet at a location;
notifying a list of plug-in objects to the existence of the data packet, the list of plug-in objects including at least one of a dynamic renderer or a gesture recognizer;
processing the data packet through the list of plug-in objects through the synchronous interface;
processing the data packet through another list of plug-in objects through the asynchronous interface, the another list of plug-in objects including at least an ink collection object.
3. A system for communicating between a component and plug-in objects, the system having a processor and a memory, the system comprising:
a receiving component coupled with the processor and the memory for receiving a data packet; the receiving component including a synchronous interface and an asynchronous interface;
a placement component that places the data packet at a location;
a notification component that notifies a list of plug-in objects to the existence of the data packet, the list of plug-in objects including at least one of a dynamic renderer or a gesture recognizer;
processing with the processor the data packet through the list of plug-in objects through the synchronous interface; and
processing with the processor the data packet through another list of plug-in objects through the asynchronous interface, the another list of plug-in objects including at least an ink collection object.
