Abstract: A method provides an annotated language extension for the class of an object, the extension identifying an internal state that may be exposed via simple accessor methods. The extension could apply to an entire object type, or to a specific state within the object. Annotations that can be added to the extension include @Accessable, @Gettable and @Settable. In one embodiment, a method selectively accesses one or more object states. The method includes generating an annotated extension identifying each internal object state to be exposed for access, adding a usage annotation to the extension that defines an accessor method associated with each identified state, and operating a virtual machine to call the accessor method associated with a particular identified state. The particular state may then be accessed, as defined by the called accessor method.

Abstract: The present invention enables a component under test to bind to a single component, that is capable of simulating most depended upon services, including the details of their interface, whether or not they return explicit results or cause side effects, and regardless of the state of their implementation. This invention includes features that allow for dynamic reconfiguration to meet the needs of both manual and automated testing, including the ability to control normal and exceptional results, as well as features to support both unit and integration testing.

Abstract: The frequency at which a multisystem log stream is compressed by a system of a multisystem environment is adjusted in real-time. The rate at which the multisystem log stream is compressed by the system is ascertained. That rate is relative to how frequently the multisystem log stream is compressed by other systems of the multisystem environment. The frequency with which the system compresses the multisystem log stream is then adjusted in real-time. Thus, the frequency at which one system of the multisystem environment compresses the log stream is relative to the frequency at which other systems of the multisystem environment are compressing the log stream.

Abstract: Work units are identified, managed and reported on as a group or enclave. The dispatching priorities of the work units are separated from the address spaces executing the work units. Instead, the dispatching priorities are tied to the priority of the enclave allowing work units to be executed within an address space at a priority independent from the address space. Additionally, resources used by the work units are accumulated and allocated to the requestor of the work.
