Computer-implemented techniques for preventing garbage object accumulation on minimal runtimes. The techniques include checking whether source code written in a source programming language that does not require the programmer to explicitly program when deallocation happens can run within a runtime that provides little or no support for implicit deallocation. At the same time, the techniques ensure that objects in minimal runtimes are deallocated in a timely manner. In one aspect, the techniques encompass generating a compile-time alert (e.g., an error or warning message) to a programmer of source code or halting compilation of the source code upon detecting a data type definition in the source code with the potential for reference cycles. With the techniques, the programmer is provided with an implicit deallocation experience while producing program fragments that interoperate with minimal runtimes that provide no or only minimal support for implicit deallocation (e.g., provide only reference counting).

Computer-implemented techniques solve a number of problems with producing idiomatic software documentation for many programming languages from a common specification written in a common specification programming language. The techniques may be employed by a documentation generator computer program that translates the common specification into software programming interface documentation for each of many different programming language targets. The techniques may also be employed by a source-to-source compiler that incorporates the techniques to generate documentation from the common specification for each of many different programming language targets in addition to compiling the common specification into the different target languages.

Embodiments provide computer-implemented techniques for publishing multiple software libraries to multiple source code repositories using a set of repository agents each configured to execute one or more source code repository-specific pre-publication actions for different source code repositories.

Computer-implemented techniques for deriving many idiomatic programming language interfaces. The techniques allow a programmer to provide idiomatic interfaces in many different programming languages without extra per-language effort. The techniques provide a solution to technical problems involved in providing idiomatic interfaces in many different programming languages. In particular, the techniques solve the problem of providing idiomatic interfaces that use the different definitional elements required by different programming languages, and in a way that programmers experienced in the language expect.

Computer-implemented techniques are disclosed for managing reusable collaborative content item components in a collaborative content management system. The techniques include providing locations in collaborative content items where users may store reusable components. When editing a collaborative content item, a user may select a portion, fragment or section of the collaborative content item content and save that as a reusable component. The reusable component is saved in a reusable component catalog. Other users may then insert the same component from the reusable component catalog t into their collaborative content items. When the component in the catalog is updated, other collaborative content items in the collaborative content management system that use that component are automatically updated as well.

The web cookie data specifying a web cookie associated with an encoded domain is received. An identifier of an original domain corresponding to the encoded domain is determined. The web cookie data is stored in a stored web cookie in a manner that associates the web cookie data to the original domain but the stored web cookie is scoped to a domain scope that includes the encoded domain.
