Embodiment Construction

[0021] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] A code search method based on constraint solving in this embodiment, the main feature of this method is to solve the code search problem based on the constraint solving method, and handle loop statements and class member variables, making up for the shortcomings of previous work, and The accuracy rate of code search is greatly improved, so that programmers can search for required codes in the software development process, learn from or reuse them, and improve the efficiency and quality of software development. figure 1 It is a flowchart of a code search method based on constraint solving in an embodiment of the present invention, and the specific steps include:

[0023] Step 1: Obtain projects from open source software;

[0024] In open source communities such as GitHub and SourceForge, you can directly download or write crawl...

Abstract

The invention discloses a constraint solving based code search method. The constraint solving based code search method specifically includes the steps of 1), acquiring an open source project from an open source community; 2), analyzing a source code by adopting JPF (Java Pathfinder) and JDT (Java Development tools) and converting the source code into an SSA (static single-assignment) format; 3), analyzing a code of the SSA format by using the JDT and converting the source code into constraint; 4), subjecting the source code and the generated constraint to one-to-one correspondence and establishing a code-constraint library; 5), establishing a code search system and helping a user search the code. The main characteristic of the method is to solve the code search problem on the basis of constraint solving and deal with loop statements and class member variables, lack of previous work is made up, accuracy rate in code search is greatly improved, and the required code can be searched by aprogrammer during the software development process with reference and reuse to improve software development efficiency and quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer software, in particular to a code search method based on constraint solving. Background technique [0002] With the influx of open source ideas, the open source community has developed rapidly. A large number of open source communities such as GitHub, SourceForge, and BitBucket host a large number of excellent codes for programmers to refer to, reuse or use directly. In the process of software development, developers can greatly improve the quality and efficiency of software development by referring to these mature codes to a certain extent. However, due to the huge amount of open source code, most open source communities only provide simple code search methods based on keywords such as project names. Most of the searched codes do not meet the needs of programmers and require a lot of manual screening, which is undoubtedly very cumbersome ,Inefficient. [0003] Nowadays, there are many works on code sear...
