Abstract
A method provides automatic layout of GUI screens based on contents of a response to a resource request. A display format is selected based on whether a resource in the response includes only a single data object (form display format) or an array of data objects (table display format). A specification is then created for a display object of the selected display format to be rendered on a GUI screen. For the form display format, the specification includes label:value pairs and location information specifying locations for the pairs in form columns. For the table display format, the specification includes a table definition (number of columns, column headings etc.) and row data values for the data objects of the array. Values are arranged in a display order of the resource fields in the response.
