ChangeLog

Changes since Release 1.0.03:

  • New features
    • Manu Sridharan's demand-driven pointer analysis
    • logic package: CNF and related formula simplifications
    • PartialCallGraph
    • Graphs with edge labels (contributed by Manu Sridharan and Juergen Graf)
  • Code cleanup
    • clean up instances of local variables shadowing fields
    • more type parameters
    • use HashSetFactory and HashMapFactory everywhere
  • API Changes
    • Bumped up prerequisites to Eclipse 3.3 and EMF 2.3.0
    • Nuke WarningSet and introduce new static dictionary Warnings.
    • Allow CGNode to dwell in more than one call graph. Delete CGNode.getCallGraph(). Lift getPossibleTargets and getPossibleSites from CGNode to CallGraph
    • Remove some unnecessary parameters from various methods
    • Delete DFSVisit. Use methods from class DFS instead.
    • Changed semantics of instruction index in NormalStatement to indicate IR instruction index.
    • Remove CallGraph.dump
    • Significant changes in logic formula APIs
    • Remove ExpandedControlFlowGraph; use new ExplodedControlFlowGraph instead.
    • Rename com.ibm.wala.cfg.getTrueSuccessor/getFalseSuccessor to getTakenSuccessor/getNotTakenSuccessor. Throw IllegalArgumentException if the last instruction is not a conditional branch.
    • Introduce a new AnalysisCache object to decouple IR caching from the AnalysisOptions ... the new AnalysisCache is threaded through many APIs.
  • Bug Fixes
    • misc slicing bugs reported on mailing list by Sameer Madan
    • fix instruction index for SingleInstructionBasicBlock
    • SimpleVector.iterator() ... don't return trailing null values
    • fix SSACFG.BasicBlock.iteratePhis() so the iterator never returns a null phi instruction
    • fix IR construction so that unreachable paths to phis always result in an operand of TOP (-1) and never 0
