Abstract: Errors encountered by executing applications can be recorded in one or more logs. A search engine can be configured to retrieve error data from the one or more logs using pre-specified rules. A portion of the error data can be included in a small portable message (e.g., SMS text message) and sent to the developers or administrators of the applications. An administrative console can generate different visualizations based upon what errors the search engine retrieved.

Abstract: A method for generating source code from one or more blocks of a block diagram, wherein received changes to model elements of the block diagram are stored. The generation of source code includes transforming the block diagram into an intermediate representation, successively optimizing the intermediate representation, and translating the optimized intermediate representation into source code. In this case, at least one plausibility rule is checked for changed model elements. If the plausibility rule is not satisfied, a warning is issued. A user can check mark the change to avoid seeing warnings repeatedly. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for configuring a control unit, a computer program product and a computer system.

Abstract: A method for generating production code from a block diagram on a host computer is provided. A block in the block diagram has a number of input ports for receiving signals and a number of output ports for sending signals. The processor identifies a first block in the block diagram. The input signal is traced back to a second block upstream of the first block. Compliance with a optimization condition is checked, the optimization condition being fulfilled when a group of adjacent blocks has an assignment operation that affects one or more elements of the input signal while leaving at least one element of the composite variable unchanged. A combined production code is generated for the group of adjacent blocks when the optimization condition is fulfilled so that the combined production code includes write instructions for those elements of the composite variable that are affected by the assignment operation.

Abstract: A method for the computer-aided generation of at least one part of an executable control program, particularly a measuring, control, regulating, and/or calibration program, for controlling a control system having at least one electronic processor unit is provided. The functionality of the control program is described at least partially in at least one graphical model and the graphical model is divided in hierarchical levels into submodels. A submodel can be divided nested into submodels of a lower hierarchical level, whereby values for options for the compiling of the graphical model to program code are preset and program code is generated from the model co-compiled to the executable control program. Values for options for the compiling of the graphical model to program code and to the executable control program can be preset thereby granularly with the automatic avoidance of conflicting presettings of values for these options.
