Framework for determining and exposing binary dependencies

摘要: Programs are rarely self-contained in software environments. They depend on other programs or shared subsystems like language run time and operating system libraries for various functionalities. A change one of the external may affect program more subsystems. method collects propagates information about dependency between logical abstractions within a binary file (e.g., basic block, procedure, etc.), files, programs, component libraries, services, etc,) In example, such is exposed to tool test tool, development etc.) via an application programming interface. mines this manage testing, determine risks change, development. The also be integrated into system.
