Abstract: This document relates to preserving input data. One example includes obtaining a request that a service perform processing on input data to produce an output representation of the input data. This example also includes applying criteria to the request, and preserving the input data responsive to determining that the criteria are met.

Abstract: Markup language inputs are received for generating a markup language description of an item to be rendered. The markup language inputs include in-line metadata describing a transformation to be performed on a data item before it is rendered. The markup language description, including the in-line metadata describing the transformation, is generated and presented for transformation and rendering.

Abstract: A code stream provides a historical view of changes to program code and related actions. The code stream is displayed concurrently with the code for reference, navigation, editing, sharing, and to aid in interruption recovery. The code stream automatically constructs a list of visited code segments based on user changes to the code or navigation within the code. The code stream is an activity history that is constructed based on analysis of user navigation behavior, such as specific edits to the code or dwelling in a section of the code. The user has the ability to undo changes in the code in a non-linear fashion by individually reversing changes from the history listed in the code stream. The user may manually add other non-code items to the code stream.

Abstract: Use of declarative constraints in an error validation framework of a graphical modeling tool. The declarative constraints define one or more rules that objects of a graphical model should adhere to. When enforced against the graphical model, objects that do not conform to the rules may be identified. A declarative relationship between the non-conforming object and its visual representation in a graphical diagram may be used to allow for visually identifying the visual representation in the graphical diagram.

Abstract: Source code of a graphical designer application may be generated from a definition of graphical elements that can be employed to develop graphical models using the graphical designer application, a definition of one or more object types that can be represented in graphical models developed using the graphical designer application, and a definition of a mapping between the one or more object types and the graphical elements. One or more of these definitions may be stored within a file formatted in accordance with a markup language such as SGML or XML. The graphical designer application may be customized and extended by modifying one or more of the definitions and regenerating the source code and/or by modifying the source code itself. One or more of the definitions may be generated based on a graphical designer template corresponding to a particular model domain.

Abstract: The reuse of one or more shared components of graphical modeling tools amongst multiple graphical modeling tools. Graphical designers, or graphical modeling tools, allow for the construction of graphical representations of models in which objects, object properties, and object interrelationships may be visualized. Thus, a variety of graphical modeling tools may be supported and populated with portions of other graphical modeling tools.
