Abstract: User script code that has been developed for execution in a host application can be remapped to debuggable script code, based on explicit debugging gestures, allowing for appropriate debugging coverage for the code while mitigating execution (in)efficiency issues. Capabilities of a virtual machine used for a host application can be determined, and the user script code can be instrumented with guards for detecting explicit debugging gestures based on capabilities of the virtual machine. The instrumented user script code can be executed in a runtime environment, for example, by a just-in-time compilation service. If an explicit debugging gesture is detected, a function where the gesture was detected can be transformed into debuggable script code, in one embodiment, based on the debuggable gesture detected.

Abstract: User script code that has been developed for execution in a host application can be remapped to debuggable script code, based on explicit debugging gestures, allowing for appropriate debugging coverage for the code while mitigating execution (in)efficiency issues. Capabilities of an application virtual machine used for the host application can be determined, and the user script code can be instrumented with guards for detecting explicit debugging gestures based on a virtual machine's (VM') capabilities. The instrumented user script code can be executed in a runtime environment, for example, by a just-in-time compilation service. If an explicit debugging gesture is detected, a function where the gesture was detected can be transformed into debuggable script code, in one embodiment, based on the debuggable gesture detected.

Abstract: Compile-time context information is captured and provided to a runtime binder for dynamic features in programming languages. For example, a C# run-time binder uses the information to perform a run-time bind with semantics matching the compiler's binding behavior. Dynamic programming language features supported relate to compound operations, events, delegates, member accessibility, dynamic-typed objects, structs passed by ref, arguments passed by name rather than position, extension methods, conditionally compiled methods, literal arguments, overflow checking, dynamic indexed properties, dynamic method groups, and static method groups.

Capabilities of an application virtual machine used for the host application can be determined, and the user script code can be instrumented with guards for detecting explicit debugging gestures based on a virtual machine's (VM?) capabilities. The instrumented user script code can be executed in a runtime environment, for example, by a just-in-time compilation service. If an explicit debugging gesture is detected, a function where the gesture was detected can be transformed into debuggable script code, in one embodiment, based on the debuggable gesture detected.

Abstract: Expression tree versatility and applicability are enhanced to facilitate programming across various program languages and execution contexts. An expression tree can represent programmatic code as data in a representation common to multiple process mechanisms. As a result, entire programs or portions thereof can be captured and processed by a numerous common language components. Further, language specific concepts can be reduced to the common representation to enable language independent employment.

Abstract: Determining how to perform operations specified in executable code. A method may include accessing a language context. The language context is related to a consumer location in executable code. The language context specifies an operation to be performed on one or more objects. The method includes sending a message requesting information about how to perform the operation on the one or more objects. A meta-object is received. The meta-object includes or produces executable code, that when executed performs the operation on the one or more objects.
