Abstract: Assisting automation of repeated edits of code by automated generation of rules that, when applied, perform code transformations. The transformations are synthesized while observing developers make repeated code edits, and automatically perform similar modifications as those observed. This synthesized transformation defines an initial state of code to which the transformation can be applied, and defines a modification from that initial state. A rule is then generated that includes a detector mechanism that, when selected, is configured to find locations in code that have the defined corresponding initial state of the corresponding transformation. Thus, the transformation may be applied to any code to which the rule is exposed.

Abstract: A collaboration session is provided in which an owner computer system and a participant computer system are both members. While working within this session, the participant computer system is provided access to a multi-file workspace that is stored locally on the owner computer system. The owner computer system receives a request from the participant computer system. The request is used to gain access to the owner computer system's language service. In response to this request, the owner computer system remotes its language service so that the language service is accessible to the participant computer system.

Abstract: A collaboration session is provided in which an owner computer system and a participant computer system are both members. Within this collaboration session, both the owner and the participant computer systems are provided access to a multi-file workspace's build instance. Here, the multi-file workspace and the build instance are both stored locally on the owner computer system. Further, this workspace includes multiple files of source code. As a result, the build instance is a build of that source code. Various debug commands that are directed to the build instance may be received. Some of these commands originate from the owner computer system while others originate from the participant computer system. These debug commands are then multiplexed, and the build instance is executed in accordance with the multiplexed debug commands. As a result of executing the build instance, debugging data is generated.

Abstract: A collaboration session is provided in which an owner computer system and a participant computer system are both members. Within this session, the collaborators are provided access to a multi-file workspace that is stored locally on the owner computer system. Initially, a set of development tools are identified. These tools are hosted by the owner computer system and are able to operate on the workspace's files. After the tools are identified, they are made accessible to the participant computer system. Later, a request is received from the participant computer system. In some instances, the request is directed to a particular file within the multi-file workspace and is generated using one of the development tools. In this manner, the collaboration session enables the owner computer system's development tools to become accessible to the participant computer system.

While working within this session, the participant computer system is provided access to a multi-file workspace that is stored locally on the owner computer system. The owner computer system receives a request that is directed to the multi-file workspace. Here, the request originates from the participant computer system. In response to the request, the owner computer system handles the request and then returns a response to the participant computer system.

Abstract: An application may be built on an owner computer system, and that build may be saved on the owner computer system. Then, an instance of the build may be run on the owner computer system. A collaboration session in which the owner computer system and a participant computer system are both members may also be established. Within this collaboration session, the participant computer system is provided access to a port that may be used to access the build instance. Next, this build instance is made accessible to the participant computer system via the port. In response to a change to the build, the participant computer system is then provided access to a new instance of the build via the port.
