Patent number: 11256523Abstract: Modular co-versioning may involve the creation of multi-version libraries that may include multiple versions of a class. A multi-version library may include a base version and one or more other versions each of which may correspond to a particular, respective version of a software development kit, runtime environment or software platform, according to various embodiments. At runtime, a multi-version library may be searched in order to load a version of a class that corresponds to the version of the currently executing runtime environment. If the multi-version library does not include a version of the class corresponding to the currently executing version of the environment/platform, a version of the class corresponding to a previous version of the environment may be loaded if found in the multi-version library. Alternatively, if no other version of the class is found, a base version of the class may be loaded from the multi-version library.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2019Date of Patent: February 22, 2022Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Brian Goetz, Paul D.

Patent number: 11030097Abstract: Techniques relating to fused objects are disclosed. Embodiments include verifying the validity of a transition from a current tail template to a new tail template for a fused object. The validity of the transition is determined by analyzing the type transitions per memory slot. If the type transition, for each memory slot, constitutes a type-compatible transition, then the transition from the current tail template to the new tail template is valid. If the type transition, for any memory slot, is not type-compatible, then the transition from the current tail template to the new tail template is not valid. Embodiments include generating a fused object with a repeating tail. A tail template associated with a fused object is repeated multiple times in the tail of the fused object.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2019Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: John R. Rose, Paul D. Sandoz

Patent number: 10402320Abstract: A fused object includes a head and a tail. A head template is not modifiable. A tail template is modifiable. Modifying a tail template includes verifying the validity of a transition from a current tail template to a new tail template. The validity of the transition is determined by analyzing the type transitions per memory slot. If the type transition, for each memory slot, constitutes a type-compatible transition, then the transition from the current tail template to the new tail template is valid. If the type transition, for any memory slot, is not type-compatible, then the transition from the current tail template to the new tail template is not valid. A fused object may be associated with a repeating tail. A tail template associated with a fused object is repeated multiple times in the tail of the fused object.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2018Date of Patent: September 3, 2019Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: John R.

Patent number: 7647415Abstract: System and method for providing a binary encoding protocol as an alternative to markup language protocols for Web services. Embodiments may provide a Web services stack with a single API that supports a binary encoding protocol in addition to a markup language protocol. Embodiments may dynamically and transparently switch between the markup language protocol and the binary encoding protocol, for example for communications between servers and clients in a Web services network environment. An exemplary markup language is XML. An exemplary binary encoding protocol that may be used is WS-Fast, which may use Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) and a mapping from XML Schema to ASN.1 for on-the-wire binary messages. Some embodiments may be implemented as a Java Web services stack that implements WS-Fast as an alternative to XML, while still supporting XML and providing one API to both protocols.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2004Date of Patent: January 12, 2010Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Paul D.

Patent number: 7636353Abstract: A method for transmitting data that includes receiving a first request to open a first virtual channel, the first virtual channel associated with a TCP connection, and negotiating a first payload encoding scheme between a client and a server to use on the first virtual channel. The method further includes receiving a first frame from the client, the frame including a first channel-id associated with the first virtual channel and a first payload that includes a first datum encoded using the first payload encoding scheme. In addition, the method includes decoding the first payload to obtain a decoded first datum and processing the decoded first datum to obtain a second datum. The method additionally includes generating a second frame that includes the first channel-id and a second payload that includes the second datum encoded using the first payload encoding scheme, and sending the second frame to the client.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2006Date of Patent: December 22, 2009Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Paul D.
