Abstract
In a method for graphically representing and/or processing values of data types of a formally defined data structure existing as a value tree, a window is assigned as a graphical user interface to the data structure. Generic, scalable, graphical user-interface components are inserted hierarchically in the window, the value tree of the data structure being mapped onto the user-interface components. The graphical user-interface components are in a relation to the nodes of the value tree that is recognizable to the user. A graphical or textual representation of the value is selectable for each subtree of the value tree.
