Abstract:
A method and computer system for compiling, by a computing device, a list of hosting software classes included in the hosting software fix pack when a fix is available. An execution path of each application hosted on a hosting software may be recorded. The execution path may be stored in a data store for each application. It may be determined which operations of each application interact with the hosting software. The operations of each application used at runtime that interact with the hosting software may be stored, including storing invoked hosting software operations and classes used by the operations of each application. The invoked hosting software operations and classes may be compared with corresponding operations and classes provided in the list included in the hosting software fix pack. A list of each intersection of the comparison for each application impacted by the hosting software fix pack may be generated.
