Abstract: Tracking edits executed against a file to ensure that the edits are monitored consistently so that language service requests are properly handled. Initially, a collaboration session is established. This collaboration session includes an owner and a participant computer system. Then, the owner computing system receives messages that are directed toward a file stored by the owner computer system. These messages include edits that are to be performed against the file and language service request(s). A file version is then assigned to a subset of these edits. As the subset of edits are executed against the file, the file's state changes. The file versions are published to both the participant computer system and to a language service running on the owner computer system. The language service uses the published file versions to track the edits that are being executed against the file and to respond to the language service request(s).

Abstract: A collaboration session is provided in which an owner computer system and a participant computer system are both members. While working within this session, the participant computer system is provided access to a multi-file workspace that is stored locally on the owner computer system. The owner computer system receives a request that is directed to the multi-file workspace. Here, the request originates from the participant computer system. In response to the request, the owner computer system handles the request and then returns a response to the participant computer system.

Abstract: A collaboration session is provided in which an owner computer system and a participant computer system are both members. Within this session, the collaborators are provided access to a multi-file workspace that is stored locally on the owner computer system. Initially, a set of development tools are identified. These tools are hosted by the owner computer system and are able to operate on the workspace's files. After the tools are identified, they are made accessible to the participant computer system. Later, a request is received from the participant computer system. In some instances, the request is directed to a particular file within the multi-file workspace and is generated using one of the development tools. In this manner, the collaboration session enables the owner computer system's development tools to become accessible to the participant computer system.
