A method, system and computer program product for utilizing email as a transport mechanism for activity stream posting. The method, program system, and computer product may include receiving an email, with content, at a target email system of a target from a source email system of a source. Content that is to be posted to an activity stream is extracted from the email content. The extracted content is posted to the activity stream. The method, program system, and computer product may further include examining the email at the target to identify whether the email includes content that is to be posted to the activity stream, or the target email system may deliver the email to a designated email address mailbox assigned to emails containing content to be sent to the activity stream. A notification of the email may be provided or the mailbox may be checked for email.

Email as a transport mechanism for activity stream posting

A method, system and computer program product for preserving event data for lazily-loaded macro components. Upon detecting an event published by a publisher, the logical channel of the detected event is identified. If one of the macro components to be lazily-loaded is a primary receiver for that logical channel (determined by performing a table-lookup of a data structure containing a listing of macro components and their associated logical channels for which they are to be the primary receivers), then the indication of the logical channel of the detected event along with the data of the published event are stored as a key/value pair in a data structure. Upon the macro component to be lazily-loaded having been loaded, the data of the published event associated with the logical channel for which the loaded macro component is a primary receiver is retrieved and transmitted to that logical channel.

Loading program modules with hierarchical relationship can include receiving a request for loading the program modules from a client, the request including root module information in the program modules to be loaded and, according to the root module information in the request, obtaining a root module to be loaded and child modules of the root module to be loaded using a central processing unit. The root module and the child modules of the root module can be sent to the client.
