on
Low Level Dependencies
DepDigger is an Eclipse plug-in that identifies complex data-flow
dependencies on code-level. Low-level dependencies between
program operations are modeled by the use-def graph, which is generated
from reaching definitions of variables. The tool annotates
program operations with their dependency degree, such that `difficult'
program operations are easy to locate. We hope that this tool helps
detecting and preventing code degeneration, which is often a challenge
in today's software projects, due to the high refactoring and
restructuring frequency.
