  • Extensible metadata
    Patent number: 8104025
    Abstract: Systems and methods for extensible metadata are described. In one aspect, source code is compiled to generate an assembly. During assembly generating operations, metadata and extensible metadata is emitted into the assembly. The extensible metadata describes standard and non-standard metadata that presents an extension to the standard metadata.

  • Method and system for program editing and debugging in a common language runtime environment
    Patent number: 7516441
    Abstract: A system and method of providing edit and continue support in a software program debugging environment. “Edit and continue” support allows a user (e.g., programmer and/or developer) to update the code and/or data structure(s) of an executing program while it is running. After the user has finished editing their code and resumes execution, an integrated development environment (IDE) propagates the edit(s) into a common language runtime (CLR) environment before continuing. Therefore, from the CLR environment's perspective, an edit is a block of intermediate language code (IL) and/or metadata that is inserted into a running process. Moreover, The IDE can facilitate: determining “legality” of an edit; building the edit; sending the edit to the CLR environment; and/or, facilitating the CLR environment switch execution to the edited code.

  • Strategy for referencing code resources
    Patent number: 7487498
    Abstract: A strategy is described for assisting a supplier in updating code without negatively impacting preexisting applications that may interact with the original or updated code. In this strategy, a resource is transferred from a first code module to a second code module. So that the applications that utilize the resource can continue to access this resource, the strategy adds forwarding information to a new version of the first code module. The forwarding information provides a note which shows the Common Language Runtime (CLR) where to find the specified resource when the code modules are executed.

  • Strategy for selectively making non-public resources of one assembly visible to another
    Patent number: 7266804
    Abstract: A strategy is described for associating an InternalsVisibleTo (IVT) attribute with a non-public resource of a first assembly. The IVT attribute names a second assembly. By virtue of the IVT attribute, during runtime, the non-public resource in the first assembly is made visible to the second assembly. In addition to naming the second assembly, the IVT attribute can include a number of optional arguments, such as arguments which specify the version, culture, and public key token associated with the second assembly.

  • Virtual method protection
    Patent number: 7155703
    Abstract: Performing validation of a derived virtual method includes receiving program code where the derived virtual method is derived from a virtual method of the program language used to generate the program code, compiling the program code to an intermediate language expression, generating metadata descriptive of the compiled program code, validating the use of the derived virtual method by accessing the metadata, and permitting the use of the derived virtual method if the metadata grants override permissions concerning the virtual method of the programming language. The metadata indicating access and override permissions may be generated while compiling the program code in the common language infrastructure. Alternately, the flag may use pre-existing values indicative of the access and override permissions concerning the virtual method of the programming language.

  • Methods and systems for compiling and interpreting one or more associations between declarations and implementations in a language neutral fashion
    Patent number: 7152223
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for expressing one or more associations between source language declarations and implementations in a language neutral fashion. A determination is made as to whether a source language association rule related to a declaration is different from a default association rule for a target runtime. If so, an override association is expressed between the declaration and the implementation, and if not, a default association is expressed. Methods and systems are also provided for interpreting an association between a declaration and an implementation in a runtime system, wherein a determination is made as to whether the association comprises an override association. If so, the association is interpreted according to an override association rule for the runtime system, and if not, the association is interpreted according to a default association rule.
