CA 2588219

A computer-implemented method is provided for searching for files on the Internet. In one embodiment, the method may provide an application crawler that assembles and dynamically instantiates all components of a web page. The instantiated web application may then be analyzed to locate desired components on the web page. This may involve finding and analyzing all clickable items in the application, driving the web application by injecting events, and extracting information from the application and writing it to a file or database.

La présente invention concerne un procédé informatique de recherche de fichiers sur l'Internet. Dans un mode de réalisation, le procédé constitue un moteur de recherche d'applications qui assemble et crée dynamiquement une instance de tous les composants d'une page web. L'instance d'application web se prête alors à une analyse permettant de localiser différents composants de la page web. On arrive ainsi à trouver et analyser toutes les références adressables d'un clic de souris dans l'application, à piloter l'application web en injectant des événements, à extraire de l'information de l'application et à enregistrer cette information dans un fichier ou une base de données.
