  • Automated problem determination for cooperating web services using debugging technology
    Patent number: 10127140
    Abstract: In an approach to problem determination for cooperating web services, a computing device executes a debug script. The computing device discovers one or more web services based on a web service discovery mechanism. The computing device connects, by the debug daemon, with a debug probe to set a breakpoint on a web service. The computing device receives a file containing connection parameters. The computing device initiates a debug session with the web service using a designated connection channel. The computing device invokes a breakpoint handler function for the web service. The computing device sends commands to the debug probe, which forwards the debug commands to the web service. The computing device closes the debug session with the web service when the breakpoint handler function has run to completion.
