Automated detection of api refactorings in libraries
2007
Proceedings of the twenty-second IEEE/ACM international conference on Automated software engineering - ASE '07
Preserved Fulltext
In theory, the APIs of a library should be stable, but in practice they do change and thus require changes in software that reuses the library. ...
Refac Lib uses syntactic analysis in the first phase to quickly detect refactoring candidates across two versions of a library. ...
To reduce the efforts, we have developed a tool, RefacLib, to automatically detect refactorings in library APIs; these detected refactorings can be used to automatically upgrade the software systems. ...

For software libraries, we study how library developers refactor their Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), especially when it impacts client users by breaking an API of the library. ...
Method: We distinguish between library APIs based on their client-usage (refereed to as client-used APIs) in order to understand the extent to which API breakages relate to refactorings. ...
Related Work In this section, we introduce literature related to API usage, library migration support and library evolution. API usage. ...

This paper reports an extension to Wrangler's extension framework, supporting the automatic generation of API migration refactorings from a user-defined adapter module. ...
Inference of refactorings in class upgrade is described in [7] ; our work depends on the library writer to describe the API adapter, but then infers refactorings from this, to 'fold' the adapter into ...

Such refactoring often involves updating not only the type of the element itself, but also the API of all type-dependent references in the code, thus it is tedious and time-consuming. ...
Researchers have recently proposed a data-driven approach to inferring API rewrite rules for type change patterns in Java using code commits history. ...
