Abstract
A language service provider framework that generates an application context of a dynamic language program being authored. The application context includes a description of the dynamic language application being authored, one or more specific locations within the program, and runtime environment information. A language service provider port component holds one or more language service providers. Each language service provider may receive the application context and generate a set of available symbols corresponding to each of at least one of the identified one or more specific locations. A management component receives the application context from the application context generation component, provides the application context the language service provider, and correspondingly receives the available symbol set from the language service provider. Since the management component provides an application context that also includes runtime environment information, the available symbol set may be more accurately represented, thereby facilitating authoring of dynamic language programs.
