A method, system and computer program product for creating a software product in an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). In one embodiment, remote object status data is received by a software development module which may be a source code editor or a program execution emulator. Responsive to the received data, the remote object status is rendered within a display medium of the software development module by decorating or otherwise distinguishing the remote OIDs in the IDE. In one embodiment in which the software development module is a source code editor, the method further includes detecting a remote object identifier in a source code file processed by the source code editor, and in response thereto, displaying the remote object status within the source code editor.
