Abstract: Program code in a dynamic language is executed through a dynamic execution module that includes an execution context and an execution codebase. The instructions of the program code are translated into machine code that is stored in the execution codebase, and the execution context tracks the runtime state and persistent state of the program through executions and across executions. Using the execution codebase and the execution context the dynamic execution module minimizes duplicative machine code generation, while preserving the dynamic aspects of the program.

Abstract: A method and a system for managing the introduction of a new non-backward compatible version of an application server into a client/server networking, the method includes first distributing to a client system to be served by the new non-backward compatible version of the application server a client application operable in a mode compatible with the current version of the application server and in a mode compatible with the new non-backward compatible version. Upon installation in the client system the client application is set into a downgraded mode compatible with the current version of the application server. While the current version of the application server is still in production, the client application is kept operated in the downgraded mode. Upon introduction of the new non-backward compatible version of the application server, the client application is set into a valid mode compatible with the new version of the application server.

Abstract: An approach for unit testing an Enterprise JavaBeans® (EJB®) bean is presented. A test case for unit testing the EJB® bean is initiated. An indication of a JUnit or an in-container testing mode is received. The unit testing of the EJB® bean in the indicated mode is initiated by injecting the EJB® bean by an injection functionality included in a test framework if the JUnit testing mode is indicated, or by an EJB® container if the in-container testing mode is indicated. A test object in the injected EJB® bean operates business logic on business data by inserting, updating or deleting business data, or by selecting business data to send to a client, thereby generating a set of resulting business data. An assertion operation on the set of resulting business data against expected data determines whether the test case succeeds or fails.

Abstract: A parallelization method, system and program. A program expressed by a block diagram or the like is divided into strands and a balance in calculation time is made among the strands. The functional blocks are divided into strands and the strand involving the maximum calculation time from a strand set is found. One or more movable blocks in the strand involving the maximum calculation time is found. The next step is obtaining calculation time of each strand after the movable block is moved to the strand in the input or output direction according to its property, and moving the block to a strand most largely reducing the calculation time of the strand having the maximum calculation time before the movement. This process loops until calculation time is no longer reduced. Strands are then transformed into source codes. Source codes are compiled and assigned to separate cores or processors for execution.

Abstract: Representation of an array in dynamically-typed program code at runtime is provided. Program code is accessed at runtime. An instruction for adding, updating or deleting one or more elements for an array is detected within the code. The array is associated with a first kind of element comprising a first representation and packing format. A second kind of element is determined based on at least one of the instruction or the one or more elements, the second kind of element comprising at least one of a second representation or packing format. A determination is made that the first and second kind of elements are not consistent, based on an inconsistency between the first and second representation formats or packing formats. The array is converted so that the first and second kind of elements are consistent. One or more array elements are added, updated or deleted based on the instruction.

Abstract: Compiling source code includes receiving, by an optimizing compiler from a debugger, a variable value modification profile that specifies locations in the source code at which variable values modified during a debug session; compiling the source code, including: inserting snapshots at one or more of the locations in the source code at which variable values were modified, each snapshot including a breakpoint; and only for each snapshot at a location in the source code at which variable values were modified: inserting, between the breakpoint and remaining source code at the location of the snapshot, a module of computer program instructions that when executed retrieves a current value of a variable and stores the current value in a register; and recording the location of each inserted snapshot; and providing, to the debugger by the optimizing compiler, the recorded locations of each inserted snapshot along with the compiled source code.

Abstract: A library management system may compare contracts between programming libraries to identify unions, intersections, and differences between libraries. The management system may have a contract analyzer that may remove the contract definition from an existing library to form a library contract. The library contract may be managed as a first class item within a programming environment, and may be used as a reference for comparing existing and new versions of the library. The library management system may create reference libraries for programmers to write applications using two or more intersecting libraries, among other uses.
