10. 付録
10.1 Atlas プラットフォーム
RULER は Eclipse プラグインの集合として実装されており、それらは XCSG のリファレンス実装として Atlas を使用する。
Atlas は Soot を使用して、Java バイトコードの Jimple 中間表現を生成する。Jimple は、型付きの 3 番地コードであり、わずか 15 種類の命令だけを含む、バイトコードの簡略化された表現である。Soot と Jimple の詳細は、Soot の Sable ホームページで参照できる。
Atlas は Jimple を解析し、eXtensible Common Software Graph(XCSG)に準拠したプログラムグラフに取り込む。以下の説明は、ユーザーが使い始めるのを助けるための非常に簡単な概要であり、Jimple に関わる XCSG に焦点を当てる。
簡単に言えば、XCSG は、AST の情報と、制御フローとデータフローの保守的な近似を表現する。ほとんどのノードは Contains エッジを用いて字句的なネストに従って整理され、その部分グラフは木を形成する。可視化すると、Contains エッジはノードの中にネストしたノードとして表示される。
Contains エッジに沿って Method まで下る典型的なパスは、次の XCSG タグを持つノードを通る:Project -> Package -> Type -> Method。Field は、Type の下で Method の兄弟である。
可能な呼び出しは、Method 間の Call エッジで表現される。
ControlFlow_Node と DataFlow_Node は Method の下に埋め込まれる。すべての DataFlow_Node は、(Contains エッジによって)ControlFlow_Node の直下にある。Jimple 向けの XCSG では、ControlFlow_Node が TrapRegion の下に現れることがある。
ControlFlow_Node は ControlFlow_Edge で接続される。DataFlow_Node も同様に DataFlow_Edge で接続される。Operator は DataFlow_Node の下位の種類である。Atlas による変換では、各 Field は 1 つのノードで表現され、その結果、オブジェクト非依存の近似となる。RULER によってほかの近似が追加されることもある。
Smart Views を解釈するためのさらなる助けとして、「Element Detail View」を開く(Window -> Show View -> Other… を使用する)。Element Detail View は、選択したノードとエッジのタグと属性を、それがテキストエディタ内にあるかグラフ内にあるかにかかわらず表示する。Element Detail View のツールバーのボタンを使うと、現在の選択に関連する XCSG のタグ階層のグラフを表示できる。
XCSG の詳細は、XCSG の wiki ページで参照できる。
Atlas の API の詳細は、Atlas の wiki で参照できる。
