Abstract: A method and system for providing feedback for docking a content pane in a host window is disclosed. The method and system include providing a docking map. The docking map includes a plurality of docking areas there within. The method and system also include positioning a thumbnail associated with a content pane over one of the plurality of docking areas. Finally, the method and system include providing a hotspot on the thumbnail. The hotspot indicates that the content pane can be dropped into the one docking area. The feedback enables a user to precisely dock a content pane. In addition, a user can predict the final configuration of the host window. In addition, the docking of the content pane can determine complex configurations within a host window including nested splitters and notebooks whose tabs are oriented in any direction.

Abstract: A system for providing a test environment for database server-side objects persistently stores a profile for a plurality of test runs for database server-side objects, where the profile comprises persistently stored test parameter values, pre-execution scripts, and/or post-execution scripts. Once the profile is created, it can be selected for subsequent test runs for one or more objects. A plurality of profiles for the objects may also be created. The system eliminates the need for a manual set up or destruction of the test environment for each test run, improving efficiency in the development of database server-side objects significantly.

Abstract: A method and system for tracking a plurality of actions against at least one object by a computer system is disclosed. The method and system comprises providing an output view, wherein the output view includes a first output area and a second output area. An action list containing each of the plurality of actions is displayed in one of the first and second output areas. A user is allowed to select one action from the action list, and information associated with the selected action is displayed in the other of the first and second output areas.

Abstract: A system and method for enabling a developer to write a computer program that, when executed, displays a matrix on a computer display device, and a system and method for displaying a matrix on a computer display device. The system receives a request from the developer to create a matrix having rows and columns, where the widths of the columns are defined using a declarative column specification string. This specification string, and optionally, a programming algorithm that modifies or recreates the specification string, are stored in the system. A user then executes a computer program in the system. During execution, a number of events may occur in response to which the utility and usability of the matrix may be improved by adjusting the widths of the columns in the matrix. The invention resizes the width of each column in the matrix according to the column specification string.
