Abstract: Clients accessing cloud computing services are allocated respective virtual machines, each client specifying defining parameters for its virtual machine(s). A just-in-time compiler executing within a client's virtual machine optimizes the executable code it generates based at least in part, on the defining parameters of the virtual machine. During execution of an application using the just-in-time compiler, the compiler is notified of changes made to the defining parameters of the virtual machine. Responsive to such notification, the just-in-time compiler thereafter optimizes compiled code it generates for execution in the virtual machine as modified.

Abstract: Debugging of code of a computer program is facilitated by having a plurality of internal breakpoints associated with lines of code previously set by a processor, during a debugging session, while implementing one or more step-type operations.

Abstract: In an embodiment, in response to reading a declaration of a function that specifies a name of the function and a type of memory on which the function operates, the name of the function, a pointer to the function, and the type are saved to a template. In response to reading a call statement that specifies the name of the function and an identifier of an object, first code is generated. The first code, when executed, reads the pointer to the function from a virtual function table pointed to by the object, finds an entry in the virtual function table that represents the function, and reads the pointer from the entry in the virtual function table. The call statement, when executed, requests a call of the function. Second code is generated that, when executed, calls the function using the pointer read from the virtual function table.
