US Classification:

707 9, 707 2, 713182

Abstract:

A project management system is enabled to implement filtering, sorting, and field level security for data associated with managed projects. A filter for field selection is prepared by a project client application and forwarded to a project server. The server generates an access attribute table based the user permissions that may be set for each field within the managed projects. Upon retrieving the selected fields from project database, the project server builds a secured list of fields. A data set to be provided to the project client is prepared by removing the fields for which the user lacks the requisite access permission prior to sorting the data. The removed data may be used for user-transparent computations within the project server, but guarded from client applications.

US Classification:

719318000

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a system for generating events for a server application executing in a first process on a server computer. The system includes a server event service on the server computer executing in a second process independent of the first process. The server event service has a plurality of event handlers each event handler associated with a specified server event. The server event service is capable of receiving a server event from the server application and identifying one or more event handlers associated with the server event. The server event service then passes information related to the server event to the identified event handlers. The event handlers, in response to receiving the information related to an associated server event, generates one or more output events for the server application. In the system, the server event is generated by the server application in response to a request received from a client application on a remote client computer.
