US Patent 7685114 Systems and methods for mapping text

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for mapping at run time a value, such as a technical identification (ID) key, to text based on a text association. In one exemplary embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes receiving at run time a request, from a user interface at a client computer, the request associated with an object at a server; instantiating, at a server, a service for mapping at run time the value to text based on the text association, the text association being determined before run time; and at run time providing to a user interface at the client computer, the text based on the text association, such that the text is responsive to the request from the user interface.
