Transactional environments for event and data binding handlers
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- executing a software application on a computing device using an actual environment of the software application;
determining, at the computing device, that a triggering event for the software application has occurred; and
in response to the triggering event, the computing device;
determining a handler environment for the triggering event, wherein the handler environment is based on the actual environment,determining a triggered handler to be executed,making available to the triggered handler at least a respective portion of the handler environment,executing the triggered handler,after executing the triggered handler, determining an updated-handler environment based on the handler environment and the at least the respective portion of the handler environment made available to the triggered handler, andupdating the actual environment based on the updated-handler environment.

Abstract
Disclosed are apparatus and methods for executing software applications with an actual environment. Handlers for a software application are registered. Each handler can be executed upon receiving an indication of a triggering event. A determination is made that a triggering event for the software application has occurred. In response to the triggering event: a handler environment for the triggering event is determined based on the actual environment, triggered handlers of the registered handlers are determined to be executed, at least a respective portion of the handler environment is made available to each triggered handler, executing the triggered handlers, where at least one triggered handler updates its respective portion of the handler environment during execution, determining an updated-handler environment based on the handler environment and the portions of the handler environments after execution of the triggered handlers, and updating the actual environment based on the updated-handler environment.

14. A computing device, comprising:
-
a processor; and data storage, configured to store at least instructions, wherein the instructions are configured to, upon execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform functions comprising; executing a software application using an actual environment of the software application; determining that a triggering event for the software application has occurred; and in response to the triggering event; determining a handler environment for the triggering event, wherein the handler environment is based on the actual environment, determining a triggered handler to be executed, making available to the triggered handler at least a respective portion of the handler environment, executing the triggered handler, after executing the triggered handler, determining an updated-handler environment based on the handler environment and the at least the respective portion of the handler environment made available to the triggered handler, and updating the actual environment based on the updated-handler environment. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)

18. An article of manufacture including a computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a processor, cause the processor to perform functions, the instructions comprising:
-
instructions for executing an software application using an actual environment of the software application; instructions for determining that a triggering event for the software application has occurred; and instructions for, in response to the triggering event; determining a handler environment for the triggering event, wherein the handler environment is based on the actual environment, determining that a triggered handler to be executed, making available to the triggered handler at least a respective portion of the handler environment, executing the triggered handler, after executing the triggered handler, determining an updated-handler environment based on the handler environment and the at least the respective portion of the handler environment made available to the triggered handler, and updating the actual environment based on the updated-handler environment. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
