1. A method of operating an active debugging environment to debug a virtual application that contains programming language code from a plurality of disparate programming languages, said method comprising:

  • creating an instance of a script host;

    populating said script host with a script text from said virtual application;

    interconnecting said virtual application and said script host by way of complementary interfaces therebetween;

    dynamically activating said active debugging environment; and

    running said script text by said script host under control of said active debugging environment in a manner comprising;

    defining at least one event monitoring case by way of a debug user interface;

    transparently implementing each of said at least one event monitoring case independent of said programming language code in said script text;

    viewing components and characteristics of said virtual application by way of said user interface at any time during debug operations;

    identifying an occurrence of each of said at least one event monitoring case; and

    activating a predefined response to an occurrence of each of said at least one event monitoring case in positive response to said step of identifying.
