Abstract

See full text

A thread management system for implementation within a computer system having a database disposed to be accessed through queries provided by a system user is disclosed herein. In this environment the thread management system provides a mechanism for subsequent replication of a sequence of one or more of such queries made by the system user. In a preferred implementation, a first thread step object is generated upon a first of the queries being provided to the database. The thread step object is formed so as to include information relating to a first state of the database. A representation of the first thread step object is then presented to the system user via a display of the computer system. Upon the system user selecting the representation of the first thread step object, the first of the queries to the database is replicated. A second thread step object may be generated upon provision of a second of the queries to the database. The second thread step object is created so as to include information relating to a second state of the database. In an exemplary implementation a thread object is then formed from the first and second thread step objects, and a representation of the thread object is displayed to the system user. Upon the system user selecting the representation of the thread object, the first and second queries to the database are replicated.
