Abstract
Various embodiments include systems and/or methods for executing a workflow task across control objects. An example method includes: receiving, from a programming tool, workflow description data associated with a workflow task executed across at least one control object; extracting, from the workflow description data, a workflow task model associated with the at least one control object; generating, on the basis of the workflow task model, a text-based script for realizing the workflow task; and interpreting and executing the script using a script engine.

A method for executing a workflow task across control objects, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a programming tool, workflow description data associated with a workflow task executed across at least one control object;
- extracting, from the workflow description data, a workflow task model associated with the at least one control object;
- generating, on the basis of the workflow task model, a text-based script for realizing the workflow task;
- and
- interpreting and executing the script using a script engine.
An apparatus for executing a workflow task across control objects, the apparatus comprising:
- a communication interface configured to receive, from a programming tool, workflow description data associated with a workflow task executed across at least one control object;
- a parser configured to extract, from the workflow description data, a workflow task model associated with the at least one control object;
- a script generator configured to generate, on the basis of the workflow task model, a text-based script for realizing the workflow task;
- and
- a script engine module configured to interpret and execute the script.
