Abstract:

A script evaluator analyzes script code and identifies possible problems with respect to given browsers and given browser versions. When configuring the parameters of analysis of the script evaluator, the user may select versions of known browsers for which support is desired. The script evaluator may point out functions in the script code that are not supported by certain versions of selected browsers. The evaluator may also suggest alternative functions that may be supported by all desired browser versions. Help information may be provided to assist the user. The script evaluator may receive browser support and help information from a library. The library may be collected from the browser software vendors or may be supplied with the script evaluator. The script evaluator may also include an editor or may be part of an existing developer tool.

Abstract:

Progress is determined for downloading a Web Page having included objects. The method includes accessing the Web Page, and estimating a total size for the Web Page. The estimating includes reading file sizes for the objects. The file size for such an object has an association with a reference in the Web Page to the object. The reference includes a tag which has a first attribute with a source address for the object. The method further includes loading the objects for the Web Page, and presenting the estimated total size in comparison to an accumulated loaded amount of the Web Page objects. The comparison is updated at respective instances during the loading to dynamically indicate downloading progress. In another aspect, the presenting includes presenting the comparison on a browser program bar, and presenting the browser program bar on a task bar.

Abstract:

A method, apparatus, processor, system, and signal-bearing medium that in an embodiment determine that blob (binary large object) data in a source field is associated with a source CCSID (Coded Character Set Identifier), determine a target CCSID for a target field, and replicate the blob data from the source field to the target field based on the source CCSID and the target CCSID. In this way, blob data can be converted between languages.

US Classification:

709220, 709221, 709227

Abstract:

A method, computer program product, and data processing system for automatically configuring a networking-enabled device for use with different networks are disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, a client stores multiple configuration profiles containing configuration settings corresponding to different networks. When the client becomes connected to a network, a router or other form of server detects the addition of the client to the network. In response to the client connecting to the network, the server broadcasts an identifier over the network, which the client receives. The client uses the identifier to identify the appropriate stored configuration profile corresponding to the network. The client then completes its configuration using the identified configuration profile.

Abstract:

A method, computer program product, and data processing system for exchanging information regarding software source code among a team of developers is disclosed. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a developer associates commentary with a particular code feature, such as a function or object class. A list of intended recipients or readers of the commentary is obtained from the developer. Additional settings regarding such things as an expiration date for the commentary are also obtained from the developer. The source code with associated commentary is then made available to the intended readers. If desired, the source code with associated commentary may be transmitted the intended recipients via e-mail or an “instant message” or other form of notification can be transmitted to the intended recipients to notify them of the commentary to be read.

US Classification:

707101, 707 1, 707 3, 707100, 707103 R

Abstract:

A computer Implemented method of automatically removing space characters from data being entered into a database system are provided. When a user creates a table in a database system into which data having leading and/or trailing character spaces may be entered, the user may specifically instruct the database system to remove any character spaces before entering the data into the table. Consequently, when a piece of data is being entered into the table, the database system will determine whether the piece of data includes leading and/or trailing character spaces. If so, the database system will automatically remove the character spaces from the piece of data before it is entered into the table. Hence, the use of TRIM functions when retrieving data from the database system will be obviated.

Abstract:

Methods to enhance browsing of messages in a message queue are disclosed. Embodiments include hardware and/or software for tracking records browsed by one or more agents. The agents can be processes designed to collect, process, and/or reformat data for an upperware application, a data warehouse, and/or similar arrangements. When agents set up communications with a queue, the agents may include an attribute setting that instructs the middleware to track the last record browsed and/or the next record to browse. In response to setting the attribute, some embodiments record the current record number, row number, queue identifier, and/or the like in a database with an agent identification (ID). Then, whenever an agent re-establishes communication with the middleware queue using the same ID, the middleware can retrieve the current record number.
