Abstract: A method for display of and interaction with local and remote data objects in a distributed data processing system is disclosed. In an embodiment, given sufficient information or “meta data” (i.e. data about data) for a local system and a remote system, a data object viewer may combine both local and remote data objects in a single view. In an embodiment, a user may interact with these local and remote data objects in a context sensitive manner such that, in dependence on the selected data object, either a local action, a remote action, or both local and remote actions may be performed on the selected data object.

Abstract: A technique for use in a team sharing environment is provided. The technique is for persisting resource properties in an integrated development environment during transitions of data between a user and a team repository. The technique stores a list of property keys to be persisted and their associated resource property values in a property file. An associated property file is created for each resource having properties to be persisted. The property file may be used for storing a cache of prior resource property values. The property file is searchable for returning a list of the property keys and their associated resource property values. The property key name is qualified by appending the property key name to the name of the contributing resource. The property file is a metadata file. The metadata file is an XML file. An extension point may be employed for providing an application program interface to third party plug-ins for creating a property file for the third party plug-in.

Abstract: A computer system for generating and analyzing application trace data includes a monitor for launching Java language virtual machines using the Java Platform Debug Architecture to enable the virtual machines to generate event data on the occurrence of specified events during application execution on the virtual machines. The event data is placed on an event queue and the monitor removes the event data from the event queue for forwarding to a logging service. The logging service records the event data in a trace file. A set of problem determination tools use defined product description, and the trace file data to provide an analysis to a user based on a defined level of analysis selected by the user from product, component, code and logical levels of analysis.
