State separation for virtual applications
First Claim
1. A computer system, the system comprising:
- one or more processors; and
one or more computer storage devices having stored thereon computer-executable instructions, that when executed by the one or more processors, control the computer system to;
execute an application to exhibit a first behavior, the application configured to integrate with a plurality of resources, including integrating with a specified resource when the specified resource is available to the application, the first behavior based on a first state defined by an availability of the specified resource;
detect a change to the availability of the specified resource, the change to the availability of the specified resource defining a second state for the application;
determine a second different behavior for the application based on the second state; and
execute the application to exhibit a second different behavior in response to the detected change in availability of the specified resource.

Abstract
The present invention relates to dispositioning state changes for applications. An application can be executed with different behaviors depending on the resources available to the application. The application can be executed with one behavior based on the availability of a specified resource and can be executed with another different behavior when a change in availability of the specified resource is detected. A configuration can be applied to an application based on a fist defined state for the application. Applying the configuration causes the application to execute with a first behavior. A change in available resources defines a second state for the application. The change in available resources is dispositioned (e.g., stored or discarded) in accordance with a policy based on a determine context for the second state.

1. A computer system, the system comprising:
-
one or more processors; and one or more computer storage devices having stored thereon computer-executable instructions, that when executed by the one or more processors, control the computer system to; execute an application to exhibit a first behavior, the application configured to integrate with a plurality of resources, including integrating with a specified resource when the specified resource is available to the application, the first behavior based on a first state defined by an availability of the specified resource; detect a change to the availability of the specified resource, the change to the availability of the specified resource defining a second state for the application; determine a second different behavior for the application based on the second state; and execute the application to exhibit a second different behavior in response to the detected change in availability of the specified resource. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)
