Abstract: The present disclosure relates to maintaining assertions in an integrated development environment (IDE) tool. According to one embodiment, the IDE receives a request to add an assertion at a specified location within source code of an application from a user interacting with an integrated development environment (IDE) tool. The source code is stored in a first file associated with a development project. The IDE tool receives a definition for the assertion and stores the definition for the assertion in a second file associated with the development project. The IDE tool creates an association in the development project between the source code of the application and the assertion.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to managing assertions in program source code in an integrated development environment (IDE) tool. According to one embodiment, the IDE tool receives a request to execute an application built from source code of a development project from a user interacting with an integrated development environment (IDE) tool. The IDE tool identifies changes to one or more of the source code of the development project from a previous version of the one or more source code. Based on the changes to the source code, the IDE tool selectively identifies one or more assertions to insert in the source code based on the identified changes.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to maintaining assertions in source code components of a development project by an integrated development environment (IDE) tool. According to one embodiment, a request is received to build a software application generated from the development project. Based on prior executions of the software application, resource requirements for each of one or more assertions included in the prior executions of the software application are identified. One or more of the assertions based on the identified resource requirements are selectively inserted in the source code components. The source code components of the development project are compiled to build the software application.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a current internal corrosion level at a current time is read from an internal corrosion sensor that is internal to a computer. An internal corrosion difference is calculated between the current internal corrosion level and a previous internal corrosion level. Upon determining that the internal corrosion difference is more than a first threshold amount, a first action is performed that decreases an internal temperature of the computer. In a further embodiment, upon determining that the internal corrosion difference is less than a second threshold amount, a second action is performed that allows the internal temperature of the computer to increase.

Abstract: A method for controlling access to a memory of a computer system configured with at least one logical partition may include receiving a first request to map a first page of the memory, the request identifying a first requester. A first logical partition associated with the first page may be determined. It may be determined that an attribute of the first logical partition limits access to individual pages of the first logical partition to a single requester, and that the first page is available to be mapped to a requester. The first page may be mapped to the first requester and a flag indicating that the first page is unavailable for an additional mapping may be set. The first request may be from a device driver on behalf of an input/output adapter, as the first requester, to use the first page in a direct memory access transfer.

Abstract: An apparatus and method detect the use of stale data values due to weak consistency between parallel threads on a computer system. A consistency error detection mechanism uses object code injection to build a consistency error detection table during the operation of an application. When the application is paused, the consistency error detection mechanism uses the consistency error detection table to detect consistency errors where stale data is used by the application. The consistency error detection mechanism alerts the user/programmer to the consistency errors in the application program.

Abstract: A method for identifying code segments and associated software developers in a software development environment is disclosed. A software development tool detects a memory error in a first code segment. The software development tool associates the memory error with a first software developer that is associated with the first code segment. The software development tool identifies a second code segment related to the first code segment. The software development tool associates the memory error with a second software developer that is associated with the second code segment.

Abstract: Methods to discover weak consistency errors in an application, by executing, by a debugger, a first thread of the application, by, determining that a first instruction in the first thread specifies to store a first value at a first memory address, setting a current value stored in the first memory address as an old value for the first memory address in a container for the first thread, executing the first instruction to store the first value at the first memory address, and setting the first value as a new value for the first memory address in the container for the first thread. The debugger then executes a second thread of the application, by restoring old values in the containers for all other threads and restoring a new value for each memory address specified in a container for the second thread to its respective memory address.

The method may also include displaying the set of entry keys of the device in a second set of positions. The method may also include determining a second password based on the second set of positions and entry of the first password. The method may also include determining whether the second password was entered into the device.

Abstract: Computer program source code is represented by nodes in a control flow graph. A set of target nodes is identified, where each node in the set of target nodes includes at least one line of source code that defines a modification to a particular variable used in the computer program. A usage score relating to the variable is calculated for each target node. Each usage score is then recalculated based on the earlier scores and also based on the modifications to the variable that are defined by the lines of source code. Each recalculated score is compared to its corresponding earlier score, and if any score has changed, then the process repeats. Scores are recalculated based on the most recently calculated scores until the scores stop changing. The final scores may then be displayed.

Abstract: A method for debugging a program having a plurality of threads includes identifying, for each thread, a target point at which the program terminated and a staging point previously executed in the thread. The method further includes executing each thread from the staging point to the target point and determining, for each thread, a staging time based upon the executing of each thread from the staging point to the target point. The method further includes executing each thread from its staging point based on the staging time of the thread so that the plurality of threads will reach the crash location at approximately the same time such that the program threads execute in a similar pattern to the execution that caused the crash.

Abstract: According to embodiments of the invention, methods, computer readable storage medium, and a computer system for providing multiple versions of elements of a program in a single compile are disclosed. The method may include receiving a request to compile a current version of a program for debug. The method may also include identifying, by an integrated development environment, a previous version of an element of the program, wherein the previous version of the element is identified by comparing the current version of the program to a previous version of the program. The method may also include inserting the previous version of the element into the current version of the program. The method may also include creating a compiler directive identifying the previous version of the element. The method may also include compiling the current version of the program for debug.
