Abstract
An application event collector which is embodied in computer software that collects event-based data. The collector follows a process which includes the steps of: (a) storing definitions of event-marking instructions that have been embedded in the software application, each instruction being capable, when enabled, of collecting event-based data, and the definitions identifying the software application in which the instructions have been embedded and the type of data collected by the instructions; (b) selecting, prior to or during execution of the application, a subset of the event-marking instructions and enabling those instructions; and (c) detecting the enabled event-marking instructions, during execution of the software application, and collecting the data specified by the enabled instructions. The application is divided into layers, each of which may have event-marking instructions embedded in it. These event marking instructions are capable of selectively collecting a some or all of a number of data items and a user can select which of these data items are to be collected. The user can also disable collection of data items.
