Integrating diagnostic information in development environment

In a computing environment, a system, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a software development environment operable to receive input for software development activities from a user, the software development environment including:
• a display operable to render text associated with code of a software program,
• a source code editor operable to receive editing instructions related to the code from the user,
• a fetching manager operable to obtain information about the code, the information derived from one or more analyses of the code performed at different points of time, the one or more analyses performed statically or dynamically, and
• an action tag manager operable to determine actionable tags to render on the display, the actionable tags representing the obtained information about the code, the action tag manager further operable to cause the actionable tags to be rendered on the display so that each actionable tag is rendered in proximity to a portion of the code with which the actionable tag is associated, and in response to detecting activation of an actionable tag by the user, displaying the information associated with the activated actionable tag,
• wherein the fetching manager and the action tag manager operate asynchronously with the source code editor.

In a computer system having at least one processor, the system comprising:

• a graphical user interface displayed on a display device;
• a first area in which code of a software program is rendered on the display device;
• and
• a second area in which actionable tags about the code are rendered on the display device, the actionable tags indicating additional data about the code, the additional data obtained and displayed asynchronously to software development activities that occur within the first area, the actionable tags, when activated by the user, causing a software development environment to display the additional data about the code in a third area, the first, second, and third areas adjacent to each other, the additional data derived from one or more analyses of the code performed at different points of time, the one or more analyses performed statically or dynamically.
