LIGHT-WEIGHT VALIDATION OF NATIVE IMAGES
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of facilitating validating a native image, comprising:
- employing at least one processor configured to execute computer-executable instructions stored in memory to perform the following acts;
validating a native image with an assembly based upon metadata created during a pre-compilation of the assembly to generate the native image, the metadata includes a last modified timestamp (LMT) corresponding to the assembly.

Abstract
One or more identifiers that facilitate efficient native image validation can be generated and stored in an auxiliary file upon pre-compiling of an assembly. The native image can be validated against an assembly from which the native image is generated, among other files that influence the generated contents of the native image, based upon the auxiliary file and included identifiers. Additionally, native image validation can be performed in an increasing cost sequence associated with each identifier included within the auxiliary file.
