Token expiration is managed for requests in an asynchronous request-reply pattern of communication. If a token in a request expires, an operation to be performed utilizes a new token to execute the operation. The new token is obtained from a status check sent to a different location than the initial request.

Token management for asynchronous request-reply

Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for offering and applying source code modifications based upon a context of a user in a development environment. For example, code snippets can be offered to the user and customized programmatically. A code editor accepts user input comprising source code. Code snippets of sample source code are stored in a data store. A code completion tool monitors user actions and detects a triggering action in the monitored user actions. A code snippet associated with the triggering action is identified. An option is offered representing the code snippet. In response to user selection of the option, the associated code snippet is inserted into the code editor and is automatically customized based upon the user context. As another example, aspect-oriented source code transformations are offered based upon the user context. As yet another example, solutions to commonly problematic tasks are offered based upon the user context.

Techniques for offering and applying code modifications

A system and method that allows developers to debug a component while it is restricted by any arbitrary set of specific permissions, or restricted by an existing permission set associated with a security 'zone.' A security sandbox is mimicked within the development environment so that developers can study how applications perform inside the sandbox. Developers are able create any sandbox and debug inside it, where violating any bound of the artificial sandbox will throw a security exception and drop the user out on the exact line of code which generated the error, as well as provide helpful information about how to correct the error.

Debugging applications under different permissions

A client or Web application assembly or group of assemblies is bound to a version of shared assemblies associated with a particular targeted execution environment. The targeted execution environment (and thus the version of shared assemblies associated with it) may be selected or detected. A file such as a configuration file is automatically modified. The selected or detected execution environment may be the same as or different than the local version. The client or Web assembly is automatically bound to the targeted shared assemblies. A user interface enables the selection of a particular execution environment. Alternatively, a user interface informs of the detected targeted execution environment and enables the reconfiguration of the Web assembly. This invention provides a mechanism and process for maintaining legacy software after a new software development tool is installed, without deploying a new version of shared assemblies.

Cross version customization of design environment

An extensible project system for software development is provided by allowing a flavor, with a specific purpose, to be applied to a base project system. More than one flavor may be applied. Where components are distributed objects, such as where COM (component object model) is used, the project system is assembled by aggregation of a base project object, which contains some data for creating a project system with a flavor object, which modifies the project system. The base project object is the participating object in the aggregation and the flavor object is the controlling object. Multiple flavors may be applied to create a project system intended for multiple purposes, corresponding to the applied flavors.

Reusable customized project system

Specific tasks associated with debugging are performed in the background, prior to a user of an application development tool invoking the debugger. The tasks including (1) starting a hosting process, (2) loading a hosted runtime environment (e.g., .NET runtime) in the process, and (3) attaching a debugger to the hosting process, are performed in the background before the user commences debugging. Once the user invokes the debugger, the user's application is executed and debugged. Thus, the perceived time to start debugging is greatly reduced.
