According to some embodiments, a source version of a software product may be established in connection with a software production landscape. A first container, representing a first uniquely addressable physical location in the software production landscape, may then be associated with the source version. An executable derivative version of the software product may be built from the source version, and a second container, representing a second uniquely addressable physical location in the software production landscape, may be associated with the executable derivative version. Software configuration information may then be automatically provided to a user based at least in part on a relationship between the first and second containers at a given point in time.

Software configuration control wherein containers are associated with physical storage of software application versions in a software production landscape

According to some embodiments, for a set of elements a plurality of dependencies between source elements and target elements may be determined. It may also be determined that a first subset of elements are associated with a first group and that a second subset of the elements are associated with a second group. A first grouping shape, representing the first group, may be displayed on a user interface along with a second grouping shape representing the second group. Moreover, within the second grouping shape indications of the second subset of elements may be displayed. A dependency line may be displayed between the first grouping shape and the second grouping shape based on a dependency between a particular element in first subset and a particular element in the second subset, and the dependency line may intersect the second grouping shape at an intersection point. A dependency line may also be displayed from the intersection point to the indication representing the particular element in the second subset.

Systems and methods to display dependencies within a graph of grouped elements

A system includes determination of first coordinates in a repository coordinate system associated with a seed component corresponding to a target build result of a first code building system, the seed component comprising a projection method between the repository coordinate system and a variant coordinate system of the first code building system, determination of second coordinates in the variant coordinate system, the second coordinates associated with an execution environment of the target build result, determination of third coordinates in the repository coordinate system based on the first coordinates, the second coordinates and the projection method, and association of the target build result with the third coordinates.

Managing build variants in a common repository

According to some embodiments, categories and an associated category graph may be determined for a parsing framework. Moreover, a type for the parsing framework may be defined, wherein at least one category is automatically created and inserted into the category graph for an implementation element of the defined type. Namespaces may be automatically defined for the categories based at least in part on inheritance relationships associated with the categories in the category graph.

Category-based name schemes in parsing frameworks

An object framework can provide unique and uniform methods for explicit and precise object identification. The object framework features a virtual object space providing access to multiple objects, each object having a set of functionality and being identifiable by a unique identifier provided by the virtual object space. A visualization framework visualizes objects independent of an application implementing an object. Each object is visualized using the object's unique identifier and according to the object's corresponding set of functionality.
