摘要:
A method and system for dynamically configuring a server computer is provided. A global configuration file is utilized to configure a server computer on a per request basis. When a request is received at a server computer embodying aspects of the present invention, the server computer dynamically configures itself utilizing the contents of a global configuration file. The global configuration file contains configuration settings that may or may not be utilized by the server computer in configuring itself. To determine if particular configuration settings should be utilized by the server computer in configuring itself, the server computer parses rules also contained in the global configuration file. If a rule is evaluated as true, configuration settings associated with the rule are used by the server computer when configuring itself. The server computer can then respond to the request utilizing its dynamic configuration.

A method to complete partially entered geographical address information. The method receives the partial geographical address information, parses the information to determine the missing portions of the address by locating in a compact data structure offsets to address information corresponding to the missing portions and populates the set of fields for geographic locations, wherein the partial geographical address information is received at the graphical user interface in response to a copy-and paste or drag-and-drop command.

Computer-readable media and methods to provide a toolbar application are described. The toolbar application receives indicators for determining when a context-specific search is executed. The toolbar application monitors uniform resource locator (URL) addresses to which a browser navigates for the inclusion of an indicator. Upon identifying an indicator in a URL the toolbar application presents filters that are associated with the indicator in a toolbar user interface. A user's selection of one or more of the filters is received at the toolbar user interface and the corresponding filters are applied to the context-specific search results by modifying the identified URL with a modifier associated with a selected filter and causing the browser or search engine to re-execute the search query with the selected filters applied. The filtered search results are presented to the user. The toolbar user interface is modified to indicate the application of the selected filters.

A method to allocate memory, in response to application requests, for a compact data structure having location data and a trailer section is provided. The trailer section of the compact data structure is checked to determine an offset for listings and indices representing the location data. Upon determining the offset, the listings and indices are loaded into memory and responses to the application requests are generated by utilizing the listings and indices stored in the memory.
摘要:
Architecture for installing and hosting of remote or server-based single-purpose applications (or server gadgets) on a local client. Where the client supports client gadgets that are available all the time, the server gadgets can now be installed and utilized on the client. Once installed in the client gadget framework, server gadgets can be docked or undocked. The server gadgets can be added to the client gadget framework with no modifications, and will continue to run as if running on the server. Components of the architecture include a browser plug-in (e.g., browser helper object (BHO)) that provides added functionality for the browser being employed, a client hosting application for hosting server gadgets on the client, and methods by which the client hosting application can interact with the server gadget and the server gadget can interact with the client hosting application. An installer is provided to install these components.
