Illustrative embodiments provide a computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product for recovering resource connections using persistent subscriptions. In one illustrative embodiment, the method comprises subscribing to an event of a predefined resource to create a persistent subscription, wherein upon receiving notification of the event indicating the predefined resource is unavailable, and responsive to receiving the notification, reconnecting to the predefined resource. The method further comprises creating a new listener for receiving event notifications from the predefined resource, obtaining subscription information related to the predefined resource from the persistent subscription, and re-subscribing to the event of the predefined resource.

Recovering resource connections

A computer implemented method to handle events based on historic actions. An event-handler receives an event, wherein the event has an associated event-type. The event-handler records the event to an event-action history table. The event-handler determines a history associated with the event by reading the event-action history table. The event-handler looks up a row entry in an action table based at least in part on the event-type, wherein the row entry comprises an action. The event-handler executes at least one instruction of the action. The event-handler records the event and action data to the event-action history table.

Event-handler for selecting responsive actions

A computer implemented method, apparatus, data processing system, and computer usable program code are provided for obtaining data from an application. A class loader layer is instantiated for an application. The class loader layer is an interface between the application and a resource adaptor and the class loader layer has access to all classes for the application. The function is executed to generate a set of objects with a set of data types accessible by the resource adaptor responsive to receiving a request from the resource adaptor to invoke a function in the class loader layer. Finally, the set of objects are sent to the resource adaptor.

Preventing an incompatible class exception caused by incompatible class loaders

Automatically creating a current project in an application developer workspace is provided. In response to reading a project file for the current project, it is automatically determined whether the current project has one or more dependent projects based on data contained within the project file. In response to determining that the current project does have one or more dependent projects, a build file is automatically generated for each of the one or more dependent projects. The build file calls importing targets within each of the one or more dependent projects. Then, the current project and the one or more dependent projects are automatically imported into the application developer workspace to form a created current project. The created current project is created without launching an application developer application. In addition, the created current project is stored in a source code control repository.

Creating projects in a rational application developer workspace

An apparatus and method for displaying system management command execution status in real-time are provided. The apparatus and method display a window that is divided into a plurality of sub-windows. One sub-window is used to display all the computers on which the system command has not yet started to execute. Another sub-window is used to display all computer systems on which the execution of the command has started. One sub-window is used to display all computer systems that have not successfully completed the command and another sub-window is used to display all computer systems that have successfully executed the command. When a computer system, displayed in the window displaying all computer systems that have started execution of the command, is highlighted or selected, the real-time progress of the execution of the command is displayed. If the computer system is instead displayed in the window in which all computers that have not successfully executed the command are displayed, the reason for the unsuccessful completion of the execution of the command is displayed.

Apparatus and method of representing real-time distributed command execution status across distributed systems

A method and apparatus in a data processing system for printing web pages. A request to print a web page is received. The web page is printed and each web page associated with the web page on selected levels below the web page.

An apparatus and method for interfacing an existing system management software user interface with a new system management software utility are provided. The method and apparatus comprises a cross-referencing table that is used to translate communication between the user interface and the new system management software utility using a set of specifications from both the user interface and the new utility.

Apparatus and method of providing a pluggable user interface

A method, system and apparatus for automatically assigning mnemonics to text strings in a GUI are provided. First, all text strings used in the GUI that are associated with controls requiring mnemonics are stored in a table. Then using common assignment rules, each text string is automatically assigned a unique mnemonic. Text strings that are generally assigned particular mnemonics (i.e., standard mnemonics) are assigned those standard mnemonics. Each mnemonic used is registered into another table to ensure against duplication of mnemonics.

According to one aspect of the invention, sending an electronic message to two or more sets of recipients includes associating a first portion of an electronic message with a first set of one or more recipients. A second portion of the electronic message is associated with a second set of one or more recipients. The electronic message is sent to the recipients such that the first set of recipients receives the first portion of the electronic message and the second set of recipients receives the second portion of the electronic message.

Method, system, and computer program product for electronic messaging mail list management

An apparatus, method, system and computer program product for allowing a command to be entered once and be translated into different command structures and be executed by computer systems running under different operating systems and having different command structures are provided. The command is entered into a common interface. The common interface translates the command into the different command structures and dispatches the command to the computer systems for execution. The common interface also requests that command execution progress status be provided by the computer systems.

Apparatus and method of providing common distributed services for system management applications across heterogeneous environments

User interactive cursor control in a computer controlled display system with supplemental mouse lighting to aid in cursor positioning

An apparatus and method for the display of a graphical user interface (GUI) pointer, such as a mouse pointer, in a GUI system operating in conjunction with a color or monochrome-scale display system having a display screens. The pointer is displayed in a color or shade which contrasts the background and foreground information on the display screen on a pixel-by-pixel basis. The color of the pointer is re-evaluated every time the pointer is moved to insure that the pixel-by-pixel contrast is constantly maintained.
