Abstract: A software application development tool provides context-based data schema code hinting. Code “regions” are defined in the code for an application that is under development. One or more data sources that are referenced by a code region may be defined. The development tool detects when a designer is attempting to reference a data schema, such as by detecting that the designer has input a specified trigger, within a region of the code, and in response, the development tool provides code hints for the data schema for corresponding data source(s) that is/are referenced in the corresponding code region in which the designer is working. Thus, rather than providing data schema code hinting for all data sources referenced by the application, targeted code hinting is employed by presenting data schema code hints for only the data source(s) that are referenced by a defined code region in which the designer is working.

Abstract: A software application development tool supports a specified design-time data feed. A software application developer can interact with the development tool to specify a design-time data feed that is to be used during development of an application in place of a given run-time data feed that is not available for access by the application. For instance, a software application developer may code the application with reference(s) to the unavailable run-time data feed, and the developer may specify to the development tool a design-time data feed for such referenced run-time data feed. The development tool then manages correlation of the specified design-time feed to the run-time feed such that references to the run-time feed in the application under development instead trigger access to the specified design-time feed by the development tool. When deployed in a run-time environment, the software application's references to the run-time feed trigger access to such run-time feed.
