Abstract
In one embodiment, a method is performed on a computer system comprising computer hardware. The method includes inserting, at an instrumentation point of a target program, an event generator comprising an instrumentation identifier. The method further includes registering the instrumentation identifier in instrumentation records. The instrumentation records link the instrumentation identifier to a dynamically variable event handler. In addition, the method includes, responsive to an event generated by the event generator, receiving a callback comprising the instrumentation identifier. Further, the method includes, using the instrumentation identifier, identifying in the instrumentation records the dynamically variable event handler. Additionally, the method includes invoking the dynamically variable event handler. Also, the method includes collecting data related to execution of the target program using the invoked dynamically variable event handler.
