Abstract: Attempts to make code secure often are associated with performance penalties. To facilitate striking an acceptable balance between performance and security, vulnerable areas of source code are identified. The vulnerable areas are examined for areas that are actually safe and the safe areas are filtered from the universe of code that receives security mitigations. The remaining code receives security mitigations appropriate to the level of risk of the code.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and/or method that facilitates programming within Common Language Runtime (CLR) for a C++ programmer by employing a mixed type. An inheritance component creates the mixed type from received code such that the mixed class type is allocated into memory into a pure native part and a pure managed part. Furthermore, construction, destruction and function calls for mixed types are provided facilitating programming within Common Language Runtime (CLR).

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and/or method that facilitates expanding keywords within an existing computer programming language by employing a whitespace keyword containing embedded whitespace. A whitespace component can receive code, and create a whitespace keyword based at least upon a successive comparison of adjacent tokens. The whitespace component creates a whitespace keyword by replacing more than one token with a single token containing embedded whitespace. Moreover, the whitespace component can utilize a lexical analyzer to group code into tokens and a parser component to parse the code.

Abstract: Unification of a programming language with a definition language creates a powerful tool for object-oriented programming. A programming language is extended to include definition language constructs. In a compiler environment, a compiler recognizes the definition language constructs in programming language code. The compiler environment unifies representation of the definition language information and programming language code in a unified parse tree, and derives semantic meaning from definition language information. The compiler environment also checks for lexical, syntax, and semantic errors.

Abstract: A minimal rebuild system and process for minimizing rebuilding of a user's programming project analyzes and records dependencies of object code files compiled in a previous build of the project on classes declared in header files. When rebuilding the project, the system detects and records changes made to the classes and header files since the project was last built. The system then determines whether to recompile the object code files from their respective source code files by comparing the recorded dependencies and changes. If an object code file's dependencies do not intersect the changes, recompiling of the object code file can be omitted. The minimal rebuild system utilizes an approximate representation of the dependencies to yield an efficient system while ensuring that the project is correctly rebuilt.
