摘要: Exploring and understanding a software system requires extracting meaningful information from it. This in turn involves syntactical analysis of source code, an activity that can be complicated by the use conditional compilation. In this paper we discuss difficulties when parsing code with We argue effective way to ensure extraction all file is parse set versions defined then describe heuristic-based approach minimize amount parsing.
