  • Patent number: 11966322
    Abstract: A method, computer program product and system are provided for preloading debug information based on the presence of incremental source code files. Based on parsed input parameters to a source code debugger, a source code repository and a local storage area are searched for an incremental file. In response to the incremental file being located, a preload indicator in the incremental file, which is a source code file, is set. Based on the preload indicator being set, debug symbol data from the incremental file is merged to a preload symbol list. In response to receiving a command to examine the debug symbol data from the incremental file, the preload symbol list is searched for the requested debug symbol data.

  • Patent number: 11966720
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for structured command line input for application integration such that application programming interface (API) integration is simplified for end users. The embodiments described herein use OpenAPI specifications to map specification paths (or endpoints) to a command line interface (CLI) command structure automatically. Accordingly, the embodiments described herein enable an end user to run CLI commands within the end user's environment to accomplish application integration without the need for a technician to write configuration instructions for each type of user device. Additionally, the embodiments described herein enable efficient product integration at a larger scale as well as the ability to ad hoc add new solutions or applications based on, for example, a single line of CLI input.

  • Patent number: 11928451
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer programming products for dynamically managing the uninstallation and/or re-installation of software applications stored or accessed by a computing system, including mobile devices. Management of the applications by the system can be periodically managed automatically or based on recommendations. Management of applications being uninstalled or reinstalled may be determined based on a rate a user accesses the application and/or data published or accessible by an application storefront, such as user reviews, storefront rankings, user feedback and uninstallation rates of the applications by other users. Applications experiencing a decreased level of average user satisfaction below a predetermined threshold can be proposed for deletion or automatically deleted. Replacement of underperforming or unsatisfactory applications with alternative applications having similar functionality but a higher rate of user satisfaction can be recommended or installed.

  • Patent number: 11615014
    Abstract: Provided are techniques for using relocatable debugging information entries to save compile time when there are changes to source code. While compiling source code, for an unchanged function, a copy is made of a relocatable debugging information entries table and of a relocation information table. In addition, for a changed function, a new relocatable debugging information entries table and a new relocation information table are generated. The copy of the relocatable debugging information entries table and the new relocatable debugging information entries table are merged. The copy of the relocation information table and the new relocation information table are merged. The relocatable debugging information entries in the merged relocatable debugging information entries table are resolved according to information in the merged relocation information table to generate relocated Debugging with Attributed Record Formats information, which is stored in an object file that corresponds to the source code.
