METHOD, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR SETTING FEATURE FLAGS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240338210 titled 'METHOD, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR SETTING FEATURE FLAGS
Simplified Explanation: The patent application discusses techniques for setting feature flags by generating a target feature flag file with a predetermined data format, indicating the name and target state of a feature. It also involves creating a feature state query library by converting the target feature flag file into target codes for different programming languages, querying the library for the target code corresponding to the client's programming language, and sending the queried target code to the client to indicate the target state of the feature.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Generating a target feature flag file with a predetermined data format.
- Creating a feature state query library by converting the target feature flag file into target codes for different programming languages.
- Querying the feature state query library for the target code corresponding to the client's programming language.
- Sending the queried target code to the client to indicate the target state of the feature.
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in software development, particularly in feature management and testing processes.
Problems Solved: The technology addresses the need for efficient feature flag management and testing in software development.
Benefits:
- Streamlined feature flag setting process.
- Improved feature management and testing efficiency.
- Enhanced client communication regarding feature states.
Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized by software development companies to enhance their feature management processes, leading to more efficient development cycles and improved client satisfaction.
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior art related to feature flag management, software testing, and programming languages to gain a deeper understanding of the technology's novelty.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in feature flag management, software testing methodologies, and programming language developments to enhance the application of this technology.
Questions about Feature Flag Setting: 1. How does the technology improve the efficiency of feature flag management in software development? 2. What are the potential implications of using this technology in different programming languages?
Original Abstract Submitted
techniques for setting feature flags involve generating a target feature flag file with a predetermined data format, the target feature flag file indicating a name and a target state of a target feature. such techniques further involve generating a feature state query library of the target feature flag by converting the target feature flag file into a plurality of target codes corresponding to a plurality of target programming languages. such techniques further involve querying, from the feature state query library, a target code corresponding to a target programming language used by a client in the plurality of target programming languages. such techniques further involve sending the queried target code to the client, the target code indicating the target state of the target feature.
