Abstract: When a user interface cursor hovers over a user interface item, a determination is made as to whether the user interface item has an associated screentip. If the user interface item has an associated screentip, text associated with the screentip is identified, a translated text string is located for the text string, and the translated text string is displayed in the screentip. If the user interface item does not have an associated screentip, a determination is made as to whether the user interface item contains a text string. If so, a determination is made as to whether a translated text string is available that corresponds to the text in the user interface item. If so, the translated text string is displayed in a screentip for the user interface item.

Abstract: Systems and methods of processing an unstructured resource which contains one or more data portions are described. The method comprises reading the unstructured resource into memory and accessing a data structure associated with the unstructured resource. This data structure contains a number of elements, each element including position information for a data portion in the unstructured resource. Using this position information, data portions are located from the unstructured resource and processed and the locating and processing steps are repeated for each element in the data structure.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods, systems and computer-readable media for identifying a safe set of resources that can be used for localization of a software product. This identification involves loading and running a base product having one or more calls to an operating system (or an API) to load language specific data. The resource calls are intercepted after the resource is loaded into a resource loader, and information about the resource is captured for analysis. The display of resources is also intercepted to gather data on which resources are displayed and the context of this display. The process involves running automated tests and/or manual tests on the base product in its base language to identify those resources that are most frequently used, least often or never used, and those that are unsafe. These resources so identified are then analyzed to generate a safe secure resource list that can then be used for external localization of the software product.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods, systems and computer-readable media for external localization of a software product. This external localization involves loading a base product having one or more calls to an operating system (or an API) to load language specific data. The calls are intercepted after the resource is loaded into a Resource loader, and queried whether the resource is identified in a restricted resource list such as a code signed dynamic linked library. If so, the translated resource is loaded from a specified language package. The loaded, and translated, resource is then checked against validation rules (which are also protected in a code signed resource list) to see if it is safe to use. If the resource is not on the list or the translated resource is not safe to use, the original resource is simply transferred to the application without modification from the resource loader, i.e., loaded from the base language file.

Abstract: A system and method for generating computer network topological and management information in a graphical user interface are provided. A management computer obtains a request to generate application topological and management information for two or more sites within a computer network. The management computer obtains site attribute information and processes the information to generate topological and management information. The resulting information is stored and formatted for generation on a graphical user interface. The topological and management information may be updated.
