  • Patent number: 11726800
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses may provide for the creation and management of applications with dependencies. An application executing via a client application on a computing device may require a dependency, such as a software module, that is unavailable at the computing device. The application may be compiled with a remote loader module. Based on determining the dependency is unavailable at the computing device, the remote loader module may send information about the dependency to a server, which may provide instructions for retrieving the dependency. The application may then, via the remote loader and based on the instructions, request the dependency. The server may locate the dependency or generate it based on capabilities of the computing device and send the dependency to the application. The application may execute with the received dependency.

  • Patent number: 11720333
    Abstract: The examples described herein extend application lifecycle management (ALM) processes (e.g., create, update, delete, retrieve, import, export, uninstall, publish) to user-created application platform components. First and second components are generated within an application platform. The first component is customized at least by indicating whether the first component is subject to localization, defining a layering of the first component, and indicating whether the first component is protected from downstream modification. The second component is customized in accordance with customizing the first component, and is further customized by defining a dependency of the second component on the first component. The components are deployed in a target environment with metadata representing the customizations and enabling the ALM processes.

  • Patent number: 11720483
    Abstract: In mutation testing, source code is mutated at various positions, and test suites are run against the original object code and each version of the mutated object code, to determine the quality of test suites against arbitrary changes in the object code. The present disclosure provides a mutation test manager configured to initialize multiple computing threads configuring a computing host to perform parallel computation; mutate class files within context of each computing thread; recompile mutated class files independently in each respective computing thread to generate heterogeneous mutants; and execute pending unit tests against heterogeneous mutants independently in each respective computing thread. Consequently, the mutation testing process is decoupled from computational bottlenecks which would result from linear, sequential generation, compilation, and testing of each mutation, especially in the context of JVM® programming languages configured to generate class-rich object code.

  • Patent number: 11714609
    Abstract: The present application discloses methods, systems, and computer program products for automatically generating source code implementing a regular expression. A regular expression that is defined within source code of an application project is identified. The source code uses a higher-level programming language. Based on identifying the regular expression, a source code implementation of the regular expression is automatically generated using the higher-level programming language, and the source code implementation of the regular expression is integrated into the application project. After integrating the source code implementation of the regular expression into the application project, the source code implementation of the regular expression is compiled into lower-level code and the lower-level code is emitted into an application executable when building the application project, or the source code implementation of the regular expression is interpreted when executing the application project.

  • Patent number: 11698799
    Abstract: A system can improve application performance by using lazy loading of code containers based on non-navigational actions in single-page or hybrid applications. A page can launch by loading a main bundle of code. The main bundle can include an action manifest that maps action identifiers to separate code modules. Those separate code modules can include functions for handling the actions. Based on a non-navigational action that occurs, the application can use the action manifest to map a first action identifier of the first action to a first code module. The application can then lazy load a first code module asynchronously from the main bundle. The application can also use route guards with filters to determine child actions, validate action routes, and cache the validated routes for later use without a remote server call.

  • Patent number: 11681520
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer programming products for loading and upgrading software using DLL files injected into a running target program process by a DLL manager of an injection program. Background services of the injection program allocate virtual memory for the code and data within the memory addresses dedicated to the target program process and injects the code and data by writing the code and data of the DLL manager to the virtual memory. A remote thread created within the target program process, controlled by the injection program, executes the DLL manager code, allowing the DLL manager to load and unload DLL files within the target program process. During runtime of the target program process the software can be upgraded, without rebooting the OS executing the target program process, by instructing the DLL manager to unload the DLL file(s), and load and/or re-load updated DLL file(s) within the target program process.

  • Patent number: 11675575
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a processor, an updated version of a computer program that includes several source code changes. A compiler preprocesses the source code changes for a target computing platform. The preprocessing includes identifying a compile time condition associated with one or more computer instructions enclosed by a macro, determining a current value of the compile time condition at the time of compiling, and determining corresponding object code based on the current value. Further, a macro information record for the macro is generated that includes the compile time condition, the current value, and an identification of the computer instructions. Further, a linker preprocesses the source code changes. This preprocessing includes determining that the object code is not included in an executable file, and updating the macro information record to indicate that the macro is not included in the executable file.
