A method, system, and computer program product for the creation and logging of a taskID is provided. In one embodiment, a component initiates a task and requests a task identification (TaskID) from a log task manager. The taskID follows this task (which may flow across multiple components or ORBs) until completion. The TaskID is passed in the thread context in local methods and in the message context in remote method invocations. The taskID is then logged with message and trace data from each of the components through which the task flows that generate a trace or message log.

A system and method for reformatting chain forwarded and chain replied electronic messages into thread-of-discussion messages for improved readability and reader comprehension. The chained electronic messages are parsed into discussion entries which are then sorted by a preferred order, such as last-to-first by date of creation. Extraneous fields and data which are not part of the substantive discussion are removed from the discussion entries. Long or full electronic mail addresses are replaced by abbreviations or preferred nicknames which may be found in an address book. Finally, the sorted discussion entries with source abbreviations or preferred nicknames are combined and output as a thread-of-discussion format message.
摘要:
A method, system, apparatus, and computer program product is presented for management of a distributed data processing system. A network management framework dynamically adapts database operations so as to maximize system performance. A skeletonization mechanism is presented in which some objects are merely represented in a database cache as a skeleton object. A skeleton object holds only a fraction of an object's full complement of data; the skeleton object remains associated with its complete object, also termed its corresponding full object or non-skeleton object, which remains stored within its original location within a database. Skeletonized data can be updated on an as-needed or on-demand basis or when otherwise convenient; at that time, a skeleton handler can detect when a request is made for the object, retrieve the remaining data from persistent storage, and then mark the cached object as being a full object or non-skeleton object.

Enhancing access for physically impaired users to selectable items in a hierarchical arrangement through the preliminary testing of a user response time in moving a user controlled on-screen pointer from a start point over an equal distance to each of a plurality of said selectable items of different sizes in combination with implements responsive to this preliminary testing means for sizing a set of items in said hierarchical arrangement to provide said user with enhanced access to said items in said set.Access for the physically impaired is even further enhanced through preliminary testing of a user response time in moving a user controlled on-screen pointer from a start point over an equal distance to each of a plurality of said selectable items wherein each item is located within a region of different item layout spacing, in combination with an implement responsive to said preliminary testing means for spacing a set of items in said hierarchical arrangement to provide said user with enhanced access to said items in said set.There is a further provision for listening for predetermined events in the operation of said display system and means responsive to said predetermined events for triggering said means for preliminary testing during said system operation. Likewise, there are means for listening for predetermined events in the operation of said display system in combination with means responsive to said predetermined events for triggering said means for preliminary testing during said system operation.

The present invention provides a method in a data processing system for monitoring a plurality of related threads. The plurality of related threads is polled for status information. Responsive to receiving the status information, A determination is made as to whether a thread within a plurality of related threads is active. Responsive to an absence of a determination that a thread within the plurality of related threads is active, a cleanup processes is initiated for the thread based on the status information.

A method, system, and computer program product for logging events in a data processing system is provided. In one embodiment, responsive to a determination that a situation exists preventing a primary logger from executing a logging task, a swappable adaptive logger is created, which in turn is pointed to a boot logger created by a swappable adaptive log engine. Event information is then logged to the boot logger. For example, the boot logger may write event information to memory or to a file if the logging database is unavailable. When the primary logger becomes configured and functional, the swappable adaptive logger swaps the boot logger for the primary logger and begins writing event information to the primary logger.

A method and implementing computer system are provided in which a user is able to customize pointer movements on a display screen corresponding to physical mouse movements. In an exemplary embodiment, a menu is presented on a display screen to allow a user to select and customize sensitivity settings for mouse movements. Further controls are selectively implemented to limit pointer movement along predetermined axes. Another feature enables a user to define screen areas surrounding function buttons or hyperlinks such that a user-controlled pointer movement in proximity to any sensitized area will automatically highlight the closest hyperlink or function for subsequent selection and/or actuation by the user. Another user selection enables a user to select various features regarding scroll boxes presented on a display screen within a browser program. The scroll box controls enable a user to define the size of scroll boxes as well as pointer interaction with regard to displayed scroll boxes.
