Abstract: A framework (referred to herein as Application Integration Architecture, or AIA) that formalizes and orchestrates activities in an SOA development lifecycle. In one set of embodiments, AIA can capture development-related information in a shared data store and cause the information to flow in an automated or semi-automated manner from one lifecycle phase to the next as the lifecycle progresses. This information flow can, in turn, facilitate automations at each lifecycle phase for the responsible stakeholders (e.g., solution architects, developers, installation developers, etc.), thereby enforcing SOA best practices, enhancing development productivity, and ensuring the quality of the final SOA deliverables.

A second set of local variables is defined that includes those local variables in the code identified as “Upward exposed Use” (UU). The intersection of the first set and the second set identifies local variables for scalar expansion.

Abstract: An example method includes modifying, prior to run time, an executable file of an application to cause an operating system loader to load additional code using a dynamically-linked library. Modifying the executable file includes determining whether the executable file includes sufficient unused space to accommodate a load command, and adding the load command to the executable file when the executable file includes sufficient unused space by: shifting, in the executable file, an existing load command that does not contain dependency information to make space for the load command; or identifying unused space outside of a data portion of the executable file that can be removed to accommodate the load command. The additional code, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to change a pointer in a table that indicates an address of an imported function implementing a system call so the pointer indicates an address of a customized function.
