Custom menus for our tools
GBSM forwarderDebugging: true.GBSM stubDebugging: true.
Code can run in GS or VA. We use a VA ‘in memory’ model to run SUnit tests on a small domain model and
for new feature development.

Code compare
The class change files (inst vars, new classes, deleted classes) are generated by a separate scan, triggered by the Export button.
Test is done on array of sub-strings, since the exact method strings do not match (<cr><lf> vs. <cr>).
Takes about fifteen minutes to compare all the code – no longer do this manually.
Push changes to GS.Used for testing.

Instance migration tool
Use a known list of instances, since #allInstances can take 20 minutes.
Allows for more complex migrations by adding a script to set values in the new instance based on the old instance.
We can migrate between any version of any class...
...and we can map any instance variable to any other instance variable.
For large instance collections, we can do an incremental migration; the tool tolerates a mix of old and new instances in the migration collection.

Attribute specifications
accessor Specsuper accessor Spec,
#(. . .
( ' Hedge Fund' #hedgeFund #hedgeFund: #none ' NcmHedgeFund' ' Accessor f or Hedge Fund' )
. . .
The spec arrays are cached on class instance variables.

Generic attribute view
The specs can be used in generic attribute views to display and update an object before a custom view is created.
We use the generic views for administrative work.

Gemstone monitor
Sessions abort every two minutes. Here, three sessions have disabled the async abort, staggered by five minutes.
More information can be displayed for the selected session… and it can be terminated if needed.
Some actions require ‘admin’ access.
Each user is given a default set of buttons according to their role, and can adjust their own custom set as they desire.

Change reports
Create new versions of modified applications and version a new config map with these new application versions.
Our runtime image does not include VA Parts and is built from IBMST.ICX
Each time a class is versioned we add the issue information to the comment field. A report by version comment is generated when the config map is versioned.
