The disclosure is directed to systems and techniques for executing a documentation application displaying a graphical user interface having a content-creation field configured to receive textual input. A link-creation window may be generated, which facilitates browsing third-party content without leaving a current application. Using the disclosed interface, a user can generate a selectable graphical object that links to third-party content from within the context of the content-creation field interface.

A method for developing an Android TV hybrid application includes: generating a WebView component in an Android Activity belonging to an Android side of the application; obtaining a WebSettings subclass and using it to configure the WebView component; using Web technologies to develop a Web page belonging to a Web side of the application; using the WebView component to show the Web page; creating a first Java object blended with a JavaScript context in the Android side to define different interfaces, and creating a second Java object to implement the interfaces defined by the first Java object, so that the Web side can call the functions of the Android side; providing a packaged Java class in the Android side to send messages, and providing a packaged JavaScript module in the Web side to process the messages, so that the Android side can feedback the messages to the Web side.

Sharing of computing resources between computing process modules of an information handling system, including loading a single instance of a library at a source computing process module, the library being a collection of resources; extracting one or more features of the library; publishing, based on the extracted features, a library interface at the source computing process module, the library interface implemented by the library at the source computing process module; retrieving, through the library interface, the extracted features of the library, the extracted features retrieved at a target computing process module; and instantiating a dynamic object at the target computing process module that implements the library interface.

Methods, apparatuses, and systems are described for artificial-intelligence based techniques for programmatically generating and integrating application programming interfaces (APIs). An example method may include, in response to receiving by one or more processors, an integration data object, processing, by the one or more processors, based at least in part on an integration machine learning model, the integration data object in order to identify one or more integration features associated with the integration data object; programmatically generating, by the one or more processors, based at least in part on the one or more integration features, an application programming interface (API) model corresponding with the integration data object; and generating, by the one or more processors, an API generation data object corresponding with the API model for execution.

Systems and corresponding methods employ an object-oriented (OO) memory (OOM) to effect inter-hardware-client (IHC) communication among a plurality of hardware clients included in same. A system comprises a centralized OOM and the plurality of hardware clients communicate, directly, to the centralized OOM device via OO message transactions. The centralized OOM device effects IHC communication among the plurality of hardware clients based on the OO message transactions. Another system comprises a plurality of OO memories (OOMs) capable of inter-object-oriented-memory-device communication. A hardware client communicates, directly, to a respective OOM device via OO message transactions. The inter-object-oriented-memory-device communication effects IHC communication among the plurality of hardware clients based on the OO message transactions.

The present invention provides an extensible communication framework supporting multiple communication protocols, for connecting a software platform and a device. The extensible communication framework comprises a communication interface and a communication model, wherein the communication interface comprises a device interface, a channel interface and a protocol interface. The communication model calls the device interface, the channel interface and the protocol interface during communication. When the software platform is connected with the device, a class is created in the device interface, the class is inherited from the device interface; a channel protocol is newly created in the channel interface, the channel protocol is inherited from the channel interface; a sub-protocol interface is created in the protocol interface, the sub-protocol interface is inherited from the protocol interface. The software platform communicates with the device through the communication model, and the class, the channel protocol and the sub-protocol interfaces are called during communication. The present invention makes software code maintenance and function addition become very convenient, and ultimately ensures the product software quality.

An application development environment generates applications from declarative specification for the application. The declarative specification describes one or more object types and references to objects of each object type. The application development environment generates instructions (or code) from the declarative specification to generate an initial version of the application. The application development environment iteratively builds the application based on user interactions that modify the declarative specification. The application development environment modifies the instructions for the application to match the modified declarative specification. The final version of the application may be deployed on a production system.

Systems and methods for API-based device management for ad blocking on computing device is disclosed. API-based device management is performed using API and other method hooking within a virtual container. By directly intercepting API calls and other method calls at the application layer, no interception of network traffic is necessary, and there is no need to support network protocols at the network layer, because data can be received directly from an application. The identity of the APIs or methods to intercept and hook may be determined by analyzing a constructor or a signature in the application package.

In one example, a server system facilitates an exchange of messages with a remote client application. An Application Program Interface (API) receives a first request message and a second request message, wherein the first request message includes a first data payload defined by a common definition and including a first payload data, the first payload defined by a first schema definition. The second request message includes a second data payload defined by the common definition and a second payload data, wherein the second payload is defined by a second schema definition different than the first schema definition. In response to receiving the first request message, the API transmits a first response message, and in response to receiving the second request message, the API transmits a second response.

A data structure (e.g., field, method parameter, or method return value) is defined by a descriptor to be of a particular type, which imposes a first set of restrictions on values assumable by the data structure. Separately, the data structure is associated with a type restriction that defines a second set of restrictions that further restricts the values assumable by the data structure. The descriptor and type restriction are encoded separately in a program binary. Responsive to identifying a value for the data structure that (a) is not forbidden by the first set of restrictions defined the descriptor and (b) is forbidden by the second set of restrictions defined by the type restriction, a runtime environment may perform a restrictive operation, such as: blocking storage of the value to a field; blocking passing of the value to a method parameter; or blocking return of the value from a method.
